my MINI is hangin- please help!

Gotta rattle that's ruining my grin... gotta readjust the *%%$#@&( exhaust and maybe fiddle with the short shifter hitting the heat shield?

Ques re: Jacks and Ramps--Help Please!

Got my MINI up on ramps on front end, and now decided I need to raise the rear also.

Started jacking the rear to put jackstands under there, but is the emergency brake only work on the rear wheels? I can't effectively chock the front tires when they're in the ramps...

Is it unsafe to ramp front, jackstand the rear? (obviously, ebrake on,car in first gear)

or does it have to be ramps rear, jackstands front? (I hate jackstands...kinda pia, hope the ramps are good for somethin when I want the whole car up...)

I await good advice!

(sorry to cross post on wheels and tyres but wasn't getting a response and waiting longer I'll just try jacking up the whole thing!--YUK)
