Default Low Profile Jacks

Hi guys, now that im lowered and have added the lip kit my car sits pretty low and its pretty hard to use my old jack...nearly impossible without scratching underneath the side skirts. Can any of you recommend a low profile jack? Ive seen Torin ones on ebay 2.5 tons for under 100 bucks but im not sure if those are good. My other option is a JEGS low profile jack but thats like 260 bucks so im not sure if its worth the price increase.

I drive the car up on some homemade ramps (2x4's will work) to get my jack underneath. Inexpensive and easy to find!

I bought a low profile jack from a local tool spot. I still need to roll up on 2x4s. I think the brand is Pittsburgh.

Check out Harbor Freight. Their pricing is hard to beat, and they have a nice assortment of aluminum jacks.
