> I am only doing the front A arms this year, so the car will be supported at the front only by axle stands, therefore leaving the jack free to use to compress the strut/wheel into it's normal position, which from memory only has a few inches of movement anyway. Am I right in this or am I still missing something here???

PS, i suppose, *if* you jack up the A-arm, move the jackstand to under
tha A-arm, then remove the jack you will be close to safe, with the
suspension loaded.  The car will be resting on the suspension, which
will be on the jackstand(s).  I would still prefer ramps.
