(ET) What is the best way



I also "stand my ET on its tail. To work on it. (with the batteries out).
However, I have a little bit different technique. I look a piece of rope
around and under the front axle and the hook the loop to a small block and
tackle hooked to a strong part of my garage roof. Then I pull away. This
lifts the front off the ground until the ET is hanging like a side of beef
in a butchers shop. I then lower it on its "bump"  tie off the rope from 
the
block and prop up the ET so it is stable. I leave the block connected us 
for
added safety.  Then I work on the tractor sitting on a comfy three legged
milking stool.
