If you go this route place a 2x4 between the jack and chassis or you may bend the edge of the rail a little.

Make it a long 2 x4 to distribute the weight of the car over a longer area.

I would recommend uses a Skill saw to cut a slit down the center of the 2x? wide and deep enough to allow the rail to fit down in. That way there is no chance to bend the rail and no chance of slipping off.
