97 mountie with a V8. During my recent repair, I had to jack the truck up to make more room to work under it. I used the big front cross member (not enough to lift the tires, just raising the suspension). Havent had much issue doing it this way but when I need to remove a tire I find myself jacking under each LCA to do one side at a time which is annoying. is there a central point that will let me jack both tires off the ground at the same time? Or should I just lift one side, place a jack stand, and then jack the other side up and place a stand (seems like that method would put quite a bit of pressure on one jack stand while I lift the other side)? Ramps are great if I don't need to remove a tire but im trying to find a better solution for when I need to remove a tire
