I have a nornal jack...not low profile. I see using a 2x6 may work to help get more clearance to get it up off the ground enough to put jack under it, and lift it? I need to get back and front off the ground to get my wheels off for powder coat so I am wondering easiest way to do this...I am not sure if the 2x 6 will give me enough. I am not at home and this just popped in my head so wondering if anyone has any other ideas just in case...Once I get the car off the ground, I have jack stands so my only issue is getting the jack under the car!
