Picked up a 2023 SS 1LE a few weeks ago and just did a 500 mile oil change and plan to do the rear diff today or tomorrow. After doing a lot of reading on this site I purchased a set of ZL1 Addons lift pads and their lift puck also. Worked great for lifting the car and placing the front on jack stands.

But I do have a concern/worry. I had to lift the front about a 13'' off the ground to get my jack stands underneath. I noticed the rear tire lifted also. I know these 6th Gen Camaros are super stiff, but is it really ok to lift the entire side of the car like this? I was honestly worried about tweaking or bending something as I was doing it. It must put a lot of stress on the body lifting the entire side from one point, no? Anybody ever have a problem lifting the car like this?
