I have never tried it that way, only on ramps. Yes I locate the four at the bumper first, propping the rear with my toes, then work towards the rear. All of my screws are captive.

Fix a poor handbrake; DIY ABS diagnostic unit; Loan of the spanner needed to change the CDT belts; free OBD diagnostics +MAF; Correct Bosch MAF cheap; DVB-T install in an ex-hi-line system; DD install with a HK amp; FBH servicing.

I've taken a vow of poverty. To annoy me, send money.
