I always put my car on wheel ramps if I can; I hate jack stands and floor jacks. It's the primary reason I don't do all the work on my own car (instead I have Alex at Pre-Tech do it - plug).

I changed the rear springs on my 914 when I had one a while back and while it sure felt like an acomplishment it also felt incredibly dangerous. So from then on I do stuff on my car but if I have to get "under" it I really evaluate what I'm doing and if it would be better if I didn't.

Now, I know for most of you 'do it yourself' types that won't fly and I still do a lot myself but my time underneath a car is pretty well limited.

Working through college a long time ago I was a general mechanic and I've been working on my own things for as long as I could hold a wrench. So, basically I wish I had a garage big enough for a lift.
