Have to remove the gas tank from my Rampside (1963, 1st-design manual shifter).
Have to do this on my garage floor. I have done it previously, but
have had a lift available. Not this time.
So I have to jack up the truck and put it on jack
stands. Question: How high does the truck need to be to ensure that
I can get the tank out? I know that these FC tanks kinda drop down
and move rearward in the removal process, and I don't want to reach
the floor before I have cleared the truck.
So -- do ordinary jack stands provide enough clearance? Or do I need
to be looking for a taller alternative?
