Re: lowered front end and jacking?

["dmcman82" <srubano@xxxx>]

To get into tight areas with my 3 ton floor jack I sometimes take 
that white (or whatever color that's on your jack) "cup" like 
portion off it. The part that the car sits on while jacking up. 
Anyway mine is removable and I put a peice of wood in it's place. 
Gives a bit more clearence.
