there wont be any issues with the weight of the car on the stands for the amount of time it will be on them
cheers for any help

is it big enough to put the stands under while the jack is under it aswel? as il have to jack the car up then put the stands on obviously, will the jack not get in the way?

mine sat on stands for a week or so while i did my engine conversion, i used the front wishbone mounts. the only problem was the stands sunk into the soft tarmac on my drive

Will be fine as long as the stands have sufficient weight capacity for the car. Mines been stood on 4 stands for about 2 years lol
