If anyone needs a floorjack, I'm selling my harbor freight one for like $30 bucks. Nothing wrong with it. I just bought an even lower profile, longer jack to reach under my lowered car better. No need for 2 jacks.

I'm about 1.6" or so. I've got the 5AD kit as well so I have to get something that is real long.
This is the jack I've got now: http://www.harborfreight.com/2-ton-l...ump-68050.html Should help reach in the front to the jacking point without pushing up against the bumper. These jacks and jackstands are quite good for being from the cheapo store. Highly recommend both. This one is also very heavy, lol. |

Ah, yeah. I've accepted that I'm gonna be jacking up all my cars from the sides from now on. No more front or rear jacking points for me

I'm interested if @trevorovert doesn't take it. I'm tired of being jackless.

Anyone in Austin have a OEM Audio Reference 400CF installed? Considering upgrading my current system but $1,000+ is a lot to drop on audio without actually hearing it in person first.

I can't even do that, lol. The sideskirts hang lower than the pinch welds. I'll have to check it again and see if its possible with this jack, but most likely not.

You need to head over to Academy and invest in a hockey puck.

Second one is longer and heavier. Allows you to reach further under the car, like our front bumper jacking point. This should make it easier to get under my 5AD bumper without scraping anything. I could still manage to do it with the first jack, but barely. Hoping this will make it easier to get it on 4 jacks when I do the SC install. |
