Which is not to say a solid platform couldn't be constructed with them.
I sell 24"x24"x2" pavers all day long. Please... share with me where you're getting these 3" thick pavers.

Even then... I wouldn't be crawling under a car with 2" pavers. I wouldn"t be crawling, or relying on a car to be supported, with 3" pavers. What... no wood up there in Oregon?

I'm following your build... and don't want to be reading in some Oregon rag about some gal found crushed under her car.
