i was just wondering what kind of jack/lift you guys use to jack up your car. the jack i use is a pro lift somethin or other, but my car is too low to get it under, so i have to use the spare tire jack to lift the car a little, so i cnm get the jack under it. anyone know an sites to get a very low jack from?

I have an old floor jack, and there is clearence problems when I have the car really low. Sears sell's low pro aluminum floor jacks for about $150, I wish I ahd one. :)

well how about this for low, my friends kia sephia is so low, we have to lift it with our bare hands to get a jack under it. sux for him, car looks cool though. i'd never want my car that low, ride quality is bull shit in his car.

use the jack that comes with the car and lift it up from the side jack points. course if you do jack it up you need two of them.

I get plywood and roll up on that. Then use the spare tire jack then use my floor jack. Or if I have people around we lift it with out hands to get a spare tire jack in there.

I'm dropped 2.25" and my regular jack still fits under. I have to bring it down completely but it fits. If I want to lift the whole car, I can't still fit a standard hydraulic jack underneather the front crossmember where the front tow hook is. It barely clears but I haven't had any problems yet.

I use a lift, it fits perfectly under my car and raises it up to 10 feet in the air.

i hate it when the car is slamed and when you go over bumps and go all diagonal but it still scrapes like a mother. *cagggg!* :burn:
