How to support front end - changing all bushings

I will be changing all the suspension bushings on my 1973.5T including the A-Arm, sway bar, drop links, etc, so I have to find a good way to support the front of the vehicle. I might have issues with the oil lines along the passenger side near the passenger door/floor board area that might not be good in support in this location.

I will make sure the gas is low and the spare and everything else loose is removed from the trunk to lighten it up, but if anyone has any creative ways to keep the front up please chime in. Oh, I also have a front mounted AC condenser.

Thanks
Bob

Yet Another Boring Rgruppe Car – Part II, Suspension

you want to use some timbers or at least a 4x4 across the body pan (on jack stands with the brakes set)

cut it so there is enough of a gap on each side that you can do your work
