Ha, my jack will barely fit under my car. On the sides i have to slide the jack saddle underneath the jack points by turning the saddle to the slot and sliding it in sideways. On the front I have to try to lift the car a little bit while sliding the jack under the car.

addiction, have you tried using the part of the frame between the rear wheels as a jacking point? I do it all the time... it supports the car's weight just fine... and you can get to it even with a slammed car

ya i had it siting on that middle cross part.... the jack gets pinched on the car when i lower it.LOL so the car is just siting on the jack and i cannt get it out. LOL and that cross brace part is bending alittle. eventualy i plan on screwing a board up to it to keep it from bending much more.
