I'm really trying to stay away from using the floor jack in any way. Help me out here fellers.

Think buying/building wheel cribs would be the best bet. If you need to take a wheel off then use a floor jack at the normal lifts points and set that corner(s) back down on a jack stand.

So here are some pics of the my glides and placement holders for the pads in the trays.

Thank you for the pictures Danco. Any ideas on were i might get those glides to try or did you make them yourself?
I tried to set the jacks up tonight, but on the last step I found out I was sent a 12 volt pump instead of the a/c pump I ordered. I'm sure it will be a couple of weeks before I get the correct pump, but I have enough money in these I have to try them. If those glides make it easier to move the frames I would like to buy some if they are available.

Thank you for posting those pictures! Those rubber guides are a great idea. I’d love to get me a set.

The $100 is a shipped price for them ?

$110 shipped, I’ll eat a bit of the shipping. I can make the two sets asked for here on this thread early next week.

Thank you for offering to make these for us.

$100 is more than I’d be willing to spend on these. Cool idea though.

No worries, for the time and materials involved that’s what I need to be bothered with doing these unless I had a bunch of orders, I’d go cheaper. Not hard to make but by the time I’m done and they’re in the mail I’ll have more than two hours in a set not to mention getting the materials. I have enough for on more set before I have to invest in another sheet of 1” think plastic and it’s not cheap !

I get it.

Well, if you get a group buy going and the price comes down I am in.

Old thread alert:

anyone interested in a group buy? I pm'd DANACO to see if he's interested in making some more slides.
