Ok, so after bringing our dog to the vet today I pull into my driveway and my car slams down and starts like "wobbling". I stop the car, get out and walk around to the passenger side to see this.......(And good thing it happened when I got home and not on one of the many curves getting there!)

Dude that sux.  How were you able to get your truck lifted up?  It used to take me 2 jacks for mine.  I'd find somewhere that one would fit and keep moving the jacks tilI got the truck up to where i needed.

well, it's not a truck (honda accord) but i had to start behind the driver's side wheel and work my way around to the passenger side with one jack and some jack stands. took about 15 minutes to do so.
