jacking your lowered dub

Re: jacking your lowered dub

I bought a super awesome jack at Canadian Tire, its by Michelin I think, all aluminum, very flat so fits under even the lowest car, and can lift up almost 3 feet!!! Worth the investment.

I had that jack. for 2 hours. takes forever to lift the car.
there used to be a sick one at Costco its low and she raises cars without much effort
and its a quick lift.

Re: jacking your lowered dub

i cant get any jacks under my car with the skirts so i would just drive onto some 2x4s or whatever is around and it works great, i also find the factory widow maker jack really fussy and wierd, so the wood works great, then just throw the low jack under and let her rip!

Re: jacking your lowered dub

I have 4 2x4 planks of wood in my garage I drive over to get my jack under.

Re: jacking your lowered dub

I'm having the same problem right now, I was looking at the michelin one also but it's kinda huge. and 300$

The arm part comes off and splits in half, and since its not very tall (actually slimmer than my old regular size jack) its not so hard to store.

Re: jacking your lowered dub

I bought my jack and princess auto and I think it goes pretty low. I think it was around $100 on sale. If you have side skirts on can you still get at the pinch rails? if not there are some OEM mounts that mount in behind in one of the plugged holes that I have heard work really well.

Re: jacking your lowered dub

Yeah but I got it on sale IIRC.

Someone told me Costco had a similar jack for a while for less $, not sure if it was as good as the Michelin though.

Princess Auto had a nice jack for a while but it wasn't very slim. But at least it lifted high enough to comfortably get some jack stands under there. I find most jacks aren't tall enough.

Re: jacking your lowered dub

i have a 2x8 ramp that goes up two level to allow the jack to get under it. Has detachable lower level to allow access to the side factory jacking point and is a breeze to use.

Re: jacking your lowered dub

I had a lowered car and i would just drive onto some 2x4s first then jack it up. Gave me the few extra inches i needed.

That's a simple way to do it.
