Quickjack is handy to have

I'd love something like that but storage would be an issue for me. My solution was to get some 9" x 1.5" boards and cut them into 18" lengths. I then screwed 4 of them together to make a solid block and did the same with another 2 boards. I jack the car up a corner at a time and then I have the option to raise the car 6" or an additional 3" for a total of 9". Given the bottom of the car is 6" off the ground, I can get a maximum lift of 15" between the ground and the bottom of the car. It cost me about $20 and each piece is light enough to carry easily.

1- I only have 12 ft ceilings in my garage. I'm 6'3" so I don't want to be hunched under a car while working it.
2 - 90% of what I do is from top or side anyway. So mid lift works better for me.
3- I guarantee I will ding my damn car door on the posts every single time I open it. Always have so I assume I always will.
