I've made my own plan for ramps, but I would like exact measurements on cradles or whatever people use on things like rear cross member, and hear about how people use jack stands after jacking front or rear up.
This is the one I got from Harbor Freight. It’s got a thin rubber pad on the lifting point that holds the pucks in place. The lifting pad also fits the rear subframe perfectly. It’s about 3 1/2 inches off the floor to the top of the lifting pad.
This is the jack that I have too.
Being that my car is lowered, I need to drive up on some 2x6s to get the jack under the side jack points… and even going in from the backside because I always put a 2x6 on the jack pad so as not to jack directly on the rear cradle.
A small aluminum for quick jobs, a medium aluminum with large rubber saddle for those with easy jack points and a large steel, long reach/low profile for getting high under the lowest points
lol I literally have quick jack 5000 and all three of these Habor Freight jacks. I can say the Quick Jack by far is best investment, especially getting older. If you time it right you get the Home Depot coupon and use they card, I paid 1100 for it shipped! worth it. I use it for all of our vehicles, and just makes everything better. Unless you can fit a real lift......
Edit: Wow actually right now they have a good sale!
