How to Support 911/930 front end with Control Arms Out?

Hi Folks,

New to the forum, so here goes...

got elephant racing poly bushing for the front of my 930 and wondering the best way to support the front end of the car with the control arms and most of the suspension taken out for the rebuild. seems like only way is to use the tub. would like to avoid dents

I have my entire front suspension out. The Car is supported by four heavy duty jack stands.
One each on the factory jack points (remove the side overs) and one each on the torsion tube.

Check out this thread. It's what I use on my 79 to lift either side or to put jackstands under during front end work.
Custom hoist/lift support pads
