I too lift my car that way. I worry more about the engine weight on the other side of the rear jackstand causing the car to rotate backward than I do about denting the frunk pan.

Goughary,
Looks like you have a handfull of axle boots under your belt. Do you have an estimate on how many oz of grease you put in each boot? I've struggled to find an actual measurement, just ambiguous descriptions. I'm in the midst of doing mine for the first time now.
Thanks in advance. Love the thread.

To me this part has no reinforced point, isn't just metal panel 1mm thick??....

You basically have to get the grease packed into both sides of the bearing, and then some extra around the thing to be sure, and from there you are pretty good. Don't over think it...couldn't be simpler....

And this, my friends...is the end of the project. Car five, otherwise known as "Aja", left today...and I'm done. Five cars, one year. No one else in line.
Happy to help if anyone needs to send me another car...

That's how this whole thing started...the Alabama car back in the beginning was going to be another we found in California...and it all started with that road trip. We learned a lot about the car and it's needs on the way up from bama...
