yes there are - I have one that has a saddle height of 3 1/2" that works great with my pucks. I have seen prices posted from $60 up. Aluminum racing style models seem to be more expensive. Check Harbor Frieght, Northern Hydraulics, Sears, etc..

Just don't buy the least expensive jack from Harbor Freight. This is one area you don't want to go cheap.

I bought an Aluminum Racing Jack that comes with a pair of Jackstand from Pep Boys for $160.

Kinesis Motorsport has the lowest floor jack that I've seen...less than 2". Easily gets under a lowered C5 front. You will pay for the convenience though.
