you will have to get a special jack that is made for lowered cars... its part of the downfalls of lowering your car... sheesh our cars are low as it is to me sometimes.. not sure of who makes these jacks, but they are out there and will cost more than regular jacks..

Drive up on a coupla 2x4's, then put the jack under it.

Hahahaha reminds me of one time I blew a tire and my front end scraped on the ground and my car was pretty much lower than Cyans. There was no way to get a jack under so I ended up having to jack it up almost by the rear wheel just to change the tire.

Yup Dino got it right, thats how I jack my car up. No reason to buy a special jack that probably costs a shit load when you can find a 2x4 in your garage.

I could not jack my car from the front also. But the way I did, I jack it up by using the regular one that comes with the car, jack it up on the side behind the front wheel. Then, I can jack it with the big one on the front.

I can usually get by with a friend pulling up on my fender just to get it up like .5 inches and that does the trick. Or I use a pallet jack to lift up the side of my car.

I just jack my car up using the stock jack and have never had any probs. Hell I was up under my car today changing the oil. I dont know how low you guys are but Im dropped 1.5 inches w/ no probs
