Getting ready to do my first 140,000 mile service. I've done several timing belts on my three 240's. I bought and will use IPD's cam locking tool.

From what I have read, I'm safe to jack up the front of the 855 on the front cross member just behind the radiator, using my 3 ton floor jack and a 2x4 to spread the weight load a little and protect the cross member.

I have 4 ton jack stands that I will place on the cradle, just behind the front wheels to support the front end. The e-brake will be set and the rear wheels will be chocked.

Any tips are much appreciated....
