[Healeys] QuickJack Car Lift

[Bob Spidell]

Since my BN2 has adjustable shock plates I got the QJ so it would be 
easier to lift and lower it repeatedly when changing camber and toe 
settings. Put a 2" spacer under the shock bumper pads and you can get 
pretty close to normal ride height, set camber and toe, take if for a 
spin to check the ride, rinse and repeat.

My BFF bought my dad's '55 T-Bird and a QJ on my recommendation; he's 
happy with both.

> They just fit under a Healey (this is under my BN2). You gotta be careful to get the CG right, I had the BN2 up on mine and I'd placed the car too far to the rear, when I removed one of the front wheels the car started to tip to the rear (wheel went back on about as quick as you can do it).
