2x4 's stacked plus low jack with a piece of wood on the jack not to damage the car

Like Curry said, scissor jack then regular jack. Although It's a pain if you have to do all 4 corners that way...

I carry 2x 2x8x36 and 2x 2x8x24 spanks ($7) and can stack them to ramp one side or make 2 ramps . This is so I can then insert the regular floor jack.

low jack still wont fit under my car... what i do is use the stock jack on the front tow hook (which is still a big PITA because of the front lip) then use the 2 ton jack on the side once it gets high enough.

yeah can't go wrong with small chunks of 2x4, I got mine from a DIY store for like 10cents each as they were there scraps. Now, I found some small ramps at Astro products, that I keep in the trunk. With the low down jack it still hits the side steps a little but once it gets a little air it clears the sidesteps. You just have to chose your jackup points wisely.

Those of you with harborfreight jacks, do you just have them at home or is that something you carry in your car? They look kinda big to be carrying around, but I'd love to have one though.

my car is too low to drive onto 2x4. Which means i can't fit the scissor jack under the front either.

so

I unziptie my front bumper and then there is plenty of room for me to fit a jack under the tow hook

The harborfreight jack is a lil to big/heavy to carry in the car so it sits in the garage. I roll ghetto style with a friend lifting up on the fenderwell while i slide the scissor jack under the car if i ever get a flat!

Low low jack + 2x6's + some skirt squishing usually does the trick.

thanks to all for the replies

I might get the harbor frieght one; as I don't always have room to roll up onto a ramp. Just waiting for one of their sales right now

I use 13 zipties on the front bumper and 4 on each sideskirt. Not bolts no screws. I have never had a problem.

The nice thing is if i hit an uneven drive way or something the bumper ripps off versus cracking or shattering. The bumper I bought from you like a year ago I bolted on and it got mangled.
