[QUOTE="Mustang5L5, post: 1545114, member: 30520"] The max motorsports install directions have pretty good tips on where to set it up. They put two jackstands under the rear axle with the suspension loaded, and two under the front control arms. I removed the wheels and put the control arms out near the balljoints to load the front suspension as much as i could. Then I threw other stuff under the car for safety before I went under there. Open and close your doors and trunk to make sure they all still move as expected and nothing is in a twist. I pulled my interior and put an ice bag on the floor in the car while welding. However while welding i was checking the floor and not much heat was getting up there. I could have left the carpet in. If you are getting that much heat in one spot you need to slow down and move around otherwise you will make the metal brittle and it may possibly crack. Do a stitch weld, and move to another location or let it cool down. [/QUOTE]
