Im doing my LT swap and i need to get the car higher than my jack will go. What is the safest way to do this? Thanks guys

 

i use cinder blocks under the wheels. or jack stands on cinder blocks.

 

A block of wood either on or under the jack.

 

I've used 2x4's or 2x6's on the jack numerous times without failure. Be careful using wood UNDER the jack, because then the jack can't roll as it lifts, and you could tip or pull the car if it's already on stands at the opposite side/end to where you're lifting.

I've stacked as many as 4 2x6's to get the car really high (basically, to the limits of my jack-stands) although I try to be extra cautious with that "Jenga" arrangement!!

 

Or you could just buy a better floorjack with a higher reach.

 

blow it a nice gentle shotgun. oh, raise it higher you mean. sturdy wood is good. cinder blocks are ok but be careful how you place them . the holes in the cinder block must be verticle NOT horizontal. the structural strenght is designed into the block in that position . when the holes in the block are horizintal when you apply weight to the block they could colapse

 

I've used the 6x6 posts on more than one occasion. I think they are sturdier and hold the weight better than the CMBs myself. I've done construction and you can stand up 200 sq foot deck on six 6x6s if the side connecting to the house is integrated into the foundation. I would never do that with CMBs

 

block of wood on top of the jack.

i've used it thousands of times and it has never failed me.
