Question?

Since I lowered my car, I am having trouble jacking up my car. I can't fit my jack underneath my car far enough to put it where it belongs. I am forced to put the jack right below the door, and in the pics you can see what is happening. Does anyone else have this problem, and is there a jack that’s flat so I can put it where it belongs? Thanks

Do what I do. Drive over a THICK piece of wood and have your tire sitting on the wood. THen there you go, you have an extra 2-3 inches to work with.

use your small jack thing in the trunk, lift it up, then use your biggie to jack the whole thing up. I can jack my car with the body kit on it

You need to wash your vehicle.

I'm going to make little ramps that go in front of the back wheels, so when i need to jack it up, ill just drive it up onto them, and there ya go!

do you have a garage? if you do and it's inclinde from the driveway, put your car there and you sould have enought difference?

front in garage, rear on the driveway...i'tll put your front up just a bit..either that or use the drive way entrance, but that's dangerous.

CamryPunks Idea is pretty good. they make a low ramp to drive up on that will give u enough clearance for your jack. although if you get a flat in the front out on the hiway or something you're fucked. I have the same problem. I can't clear the front lip or the side skirts with my very low jack. I saw the ramps on Ebay..$70.00USD + ship.. I thought that was kinda hi.. but still thinking of getting them if i can't come up with a better solution
