I have a body kit and dont want to use the stock locations because the jacks are a little to big and will damage my kit.... are there any wheel supports or something that will be safe and not damage anything????

Ramps are the easiest way to go, and less work to boot (than jacking up at the jack point locations). If you have a low kit, you can always use 2x4's for a gradual rise to get your Z off the ground.
