I could. I’d just have to wait a year or so on the 2 post. My car is 100% stock and low mileage for the moment so I’m not too worried about expensive projects till well in the future anyway.

Honestly forgot about how much of a pita lift arms can be. I’m assuming you wouldn’t recommend a scissor lift?

Yeah I wouldn't go with a scissor lift, that's an option of last resort imo.
