A "little low" and you added a quart? You've most likely got way too much oil in the system. Drain it and don't put anymore than 5 quarts if you're changing the filter too. 4 5/8 if not. The newer engines take 5 1/8 quart which is only 1/2 cup more. Tiny amount.

lol put ur jack under the rear diff raise it till u can put a jackstand on the back driver or passenger side then take ur jack from out of the rear and raise the front the same side as the jack stand is on it will raise it enough so that u can put ur jack under the front side. i do this alot on slammed cars or my car at my shop.
