Anyhow, you are not supposed to cut or drill the concrete, due to risk of cutting one of the rods. If one of them is cut, California would be at risk of separating from the rest of the country.

So, how does everyone else keep the front end down when jacking her up?

Kudos to you TriGeezer ! Looks alright in my book and if it works , you done well thanks for sharing ! I can drill my floor for anchors , but don't want to. Ebert
