So much for sub-$100 for a jack that would work - lol...

I'll use ramps. If I need to pull a wheel (brakes, etc) I can go up on the ramp, then use my jack to lift it off the ramp(s), yank the ramp(s), and put jackstands under it.

I just gotta buy some...


Anyone got the ramps from Griot's Garage?
Low Profile Ramps with Extension Kit - Jacks & Stands - In Your Garage - Griot's Garage
I have a set of those. I'm not totally thrilled with them. The bump stops at the end are not big enough so it is possible to drive off the end of them (I think, haven't done it myself). And they are narrower than our tires, so lining them up is a bit of a chore single-handed.

Just my $.02
