Lifting one side of the car and putting it on a single jackstand and then trying to lift the other side sounds like inviting disaster.

I don't think jackstands handle side loads very well.
I agree. I think most guys only take their jackstands up one notch at a time.
Still I am not a big fan of lifting by the motor. There is just something about that gives me the willies for some reason.
Here is another watch your butt thread.
Jack safety...a reminder
Go slow, stay safe! (in the garage)
