Carpet?? You need to put a sheet of OSB or plywood on the gravel. Much easier to roll a floor jack. More height needed too.

Van Height Double Check Please Hi folks. I'm sure the van height is ok but.... For removing a complete WBX, 25" floor to skirt below bumper is enough room right? I will be lowering engine onto carpet. (working on gravel floor) The engine swap madness has begun! Thanks.
