car slanted while jacked up from the middle.
I noticed something today that made me think its not right. While jacking up the car from the middle jack point under the motor and was getting ready to put it on jack stands,I noticed the driver's side was slanted big time, like a good 4 inches. I had to jack it up way high to barely fit the driver's side 6 ton stand under it (theyre pretty tall anyway) but on the passenger side it was like 4-5 inches above the stand. My garage is flat...Its like the frame is twisting... Am I seeing things?

I don't know about the angle you are seeing, but yes you will always have some lean to the driver's side when jacking up from the center like that. You have more weight on that side than the other with the steering gear box, shaft, and other accessories on the driver's side of the car.

I can't remember the last time I got the jack perfectly placed so that either end came up level.
