Floor Jack
I am in need of some assistance. Does anyone out there know a good floor jack that has enough clearance and distance to jack up a C6? My 3 ton is just to big to fit under the car.
Thanks for your help!

IMO, if you want the best, get the Omega. Here's what I have with the crossbeam adapter and jack stands. It's long enough that it will work on the front and the rear of the car with ease and clearance.

where;d you get those jack stands from and how much? mine are too curved at the top, they accept a notch from the rocker panel that most cars have, I would prefer the flattop setup like that one and use it with the cross beam adapter like you did, I have the omega jack, one word, AWESOME!

Thanks!
Thanks everyone for the posts. From what I read, others learned as well!
That is what is so great about this forum. I can save a lot of time by not having to go through trial and error to get the right set up!

I recently saw the Sears has a low profile jack for $59.99. I was thinking about my Corvette friends when I saw it. Here is a link.
