Liftbars for Boxsters

[Mark_T]

I've got a set of these bottle jack stands. I only have to lift the car high enough to get on the stands at their lowest level and then pump them up to full height from there.



They also allow me to get the car perfectly level in both directions.

Are you using four of those bottle neck jacks? Whats the cost on those?

Yes, I use a set of four. I paid about $30 each for them at Princess Auto, but I see that they cost around $50 each at places like Amazon and Home Depot now.

One day I will have a Danmar MaxJax lift, but these will do fine until then.

Anyone tried 4 scissor jacks? HarborFreight has them right now for $18/piece.
I use one of these jacks occasionally on my Saab, but I don't think 4 of them would be extremely stable. Same for 4 bottle jacks btw, there is just not enough area on the feet of these things.

Just as I suspected (hoped for)… I can easily get the Jägermobile 6” higher than before using these lift bars and the jack/jack stands I currently have. If I had a bigger floor jack and taller stands I could walk under the Jägermobile!
