Im after a jack that will be able to fit under my car, its pretty damn low, and the skirts cover the usual jacking points, so im going to need a trolly jack.
Anyone know of any that will go lowwwwwwwwwwww

1 + 2 = result 
Probably better off and cheaper just buying a low jack though

I need to get one of these, mine sits about 3-4" off the ground, so have to use normal jack to raise it up a bit the a trolley jack to lift it onto axel stands!

you wouldnt know how to use a jack jack you lazy jew, seriously though, bi of wood or a brick or something, thats all i use. make the best from your surroundings and all that, alternatively use the scissors jack to raise it a little then use a normal one

I either drive onto blocks of wood, or I use a scissor jack to jack it up until I can get the normal jack under. Pain in the arse tbh but the joys of being low
