Found a way to lift car up even more with OEM jack
I think i have found a way to lift up the car past OEM jack height.
Basically you just lift the car up to its max height, then put on jack stand. Then get on pieces of wood or something that is above the ground level, and place jack on top, and then lift it again. Then increase the jack stand's height more.
What do you guys think?

Okok. I have thought about it for a while, but i still dont think it'll work in my situation, since im lowered 1" in front.
My jack stand's minimum height is over the max. lifting height the oem jack can do... Any solutions?

Damn 25-30 is cheap, but unfortuately its not on sale right now. Would hydraulic bottle jack work? http://www.sears.com/shc/s/p_10153_1...0070921x00003a
