Keep in mind that what may be more or less acceptable in one place, may be frowned upon in other places.
Also there is a real safety issue to do something like this without a proper jack and stands to set the car on.

dont get me wrong..i agree with that statement, however...theres plenty of places you can get away with it...heck if your worried about safty jack the car up with the OE jack and place a good size block of wood under the car and let the jack down...

honestly ive pulled parts off cars in wreckers that was much more sketchy than doing brakes in some random parkinglot....worst ever was doing a seized front wheel bearing on my 71 caddy in a safeway parkinglot..just cause i didnt want to foot the bill to tow it home
