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..

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.

1990 Turbo Eclipse (race)

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.



UFO

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.

97 Eclipse GS

one of my friends used to have a 2door accord pretty low and we just picked up on the front and slid the jack under there

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

haha I blew two tires on the mountain on the same side of the car one night. haha man that sucked, I couldn't get my mini jack under the car, and I barely managed to fit the stock knuckle scraper jack under it. Haha don't try to jack you car up on a hill also, it don't work, it fell over.

Just use the stock jack, it should fit, it's pretty low already. just jack it up high enough to fit your hydraulic jack (if ya got) I suggest you get one if you work on your car a lot, big help!

Who sez FF can't drift?

with the front I have, I just put a jack under the center b/c it dips up in the middle. I get a jack on the frame and go up. A 2x4 would be cheaper than a front tho.

yeah me too, just use 2 jacks... the one with the spare tire in the trunk to get it high enough, then slip the other under

hehe, I seen this thread a little late ic.

Um, to put it bluntly...I HATE JACKING UP THIS THING! IT's A BEEYATCH! :o

Most times, people will lift up the front end by the fenders and I slide the jack underneath. Or, drive it on blocks, like deeeeno said. If you're gonna lower your car, this is one of the dreadful fun little happy perks as a side effect.

Hey bro the guys I run around with ( houston 2gnt) all got together and piched in for a low jack. Its made by ac delco. Its a 3 1/2 ton jack, Its actually a little beefy but since I plan to work on everyones car we bought a good one. It cost around 180 and the benifit is it lifts the car off the ground about a foot 1/2 in about 6 pumps later mike

stage BIG custom mj racing turbo set up, built block.worked head,all tial components, hks evcez,spearco 992,oh yeah and a huge bottle in the trunk last run all turbo 13.8@108 no nos dyno'd at AEBS in Cali with 300+ hp to the wheels

i used to use the stock jack and a diff jack.. when i had it slammed 4 inches all around.. but now its 3 4 with a kit.. so its a pain to jack up.. i can get my hydralic jack in the back fine.. in the front i roll up on blocks.. and do it that way.. i can fit on one lift in the area.. and its on base so i can use it all the time.. so its nice..

I love dino and 2gnt. ####ers (my word) bliz stole it but i let him borrow it

cool. since i aint gettin the race springs no more im a little happier. was kinda iffy bout a 2 inch drop.now that i got the sports we'll c what happens. thnx for all the replys
