try using a scissor jack as these are usually lower than a trolley jack, then when its high enough use the trolley as its safer.:thumbs:

got my coilovers on today....but just wondered, what do you all use to jack your car up, and i dont mean a jack :P

i used to drive up some wood, 2" or so, so raise it to get a large trolley jack under the front, but i'll need double that now! any ideas?
