I just installed the Total Control rack and pinion, Hate losing the front cross member for an easy place to jack up the entire front end.
Those of you who have installed the rack how to you go about easily jacking up the front?

I have the stock steering in my '66, made a bar that fits on my floor jack that allows me to raise the front of the car by placing the bar under the front frame rails. After jacking it up, I can place jack stands under each end of the bar to allow for removal of the jack. Go to link and scroll down.

Easy use a floor jack with a board on it and place the jack under the frame rail. Or jack up using the rad support.

I always use the Frame. Throw a jack stand or ramps under the tires. Go to the other side and do the same.

I used some leftover scraps of solid oak to make this attachment on a floor jack. It fits in below the front rad support and strut rod brackets. The floor jack has a 32 inch lift and this gizmo will hold the car up at that height safely,with jack stands in place of course.
