I can't help but think it's a clumsy thing...
You have to remove 3 wheels befor the car is
even an inch off of the ground...

I'd think it would take you more that an hour
each job you do to install and remove the system.

On top of that, no car is supposed to be on it's side,
there might be problems with fluids leaking and there
WILL be stresses on parts that are not supposed to take
them in the way  and length of time the forces are presented.
I'm thinking of suspension bushes and things
like the front lower control arms...

Besides that, this will NOT be of ANY help when doing
a lube job, as the oil will not drain properly.

Renting a lift bay in a DIY workshop would e my advice...
