Jacking on the tranny is not the best option. The car can tilt off, it compresses the tranny mount in ways it was not designed, and the shift linkage can hit the body and bend.

Be safe and use the side point to jack, and a few stands on the rear jack points.

Otherwise... lookin' sweet!!!! Gotta get us a better rear shot so we can see the meats!

275/40r17 on my backs, probably a 10 or 10.5" rim (custom made by PO, not sure of the width yet)... sure look big when they're off the car!
