<font size=3>I have used both factory jacks at once, one on either side
of the vehicle. <br>
<br>
I was thrilled that you could do this. <br>
<br>
After the van comes off the ground, if it is not on perfectly flat
ground, it pivots and falls to the downhill side, one or both jacks are
destroyed and fly about, and the owner becomes thoughtful about what just
happened. <br>

with my brand new '86.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; I would guess you could raise
one side and put it<br>
on a jack stand and then raise the other--if the ground is level.&nbsp; I

raised the front end using a floor jack under the front
crossmember.<br>
