What is the front jack holding on to?
Why isn't this going to fall tail first? Where can I get jack stands that tall? https://www.mckleinimagedatabase.com/images?collectionId=14449#&gid=1&pid=85

Did they install another pair of jack tubes in the car?
Smaller and round? https://www.mckleinimagedatabase.com/images?collectionId=14449#&gid=1&pid=113

My friend mechanic'd on one of the Tuthill Porsches for the Safari rally one year, I can ask her more about it. ![]() ![]() Seems like a standard rally prep item: New jack receiver bore (just above the factory position) and a "mudguard" to keep muck out of it. ![]() ![]() Front stand is supporting the bull bar: ![]() WRC-type jack stands. I really wanted them for my own car. So handy. They carry a truck jack type unit in WRC cars that fit into the same receptacle for tyre changes (usually all 4 corners every stage without jack stands ). Porsche knew what they were doing with those jacks in 911s.![]()

That last image of the jack+stand you posted is really interesting.
The photos on the East African Safari Classic Rally website are so artistic, the land of mud and prehistoric foliage. https://www.eastafricansafarirally.com/
