Jacking car
Hi guys I just had my car bra installer jack the front drivers side of the car high enough to lift the front passengers wheel about 3 inches from the ground.
Will this cause any damage?
Cheers

Probably not as long as he jacked from a proper jacking point. These cars are very stiff and it is pretty easy to lift other tires off the ground! I do it each time I go out of my drive!

He did lift it from the proper spot.
But it lifter the other front wheel the whole length of the suspension travel and another 3 inches. Just looked very high

3 inches is nothing. And if you use the rear jack point you can get the front wheel up in the air as well as the rear, which comes in handy when you are swapping out wheels.
