When I got the car it had the nuts under the car with some excess bolt thread sticking out. Also, the car was lowered down a fair bit. The first time I drove it up onto the lift it stopped dead with quite a bang, like the whole power train suddenly seized up. Couldn't figure out what it was. The car still seemed OK so I backed up and took a bit of a run at it. A more sudden stop and a bigger bang. Finally saw that the protruding bolt thread caught on the joint between the ramp and the lift. It bent the 3/8" seat mounting bolts quite a bit. So it certainly is something to keep in mind with a lowered car.
