Floor jack for those with slammed rides
My Ings+1 side skirts are pretty low to begin with. In addition, my ride height is aggressively-low thanks to my HKS Hipermax RS coilovers. I've been searching for a floor jack with really low minimum clearance (saddle height). I just picked up this one from Summit Racing. Price is $200 shipped. Most so-called "low-profile" jacks have saddle heights of about 3.5" or higher. This one has a minimum saddle of a mere 2.75".

i bought a low profile jack from HF that was min 3" but the issue was that it did not go deep enough under the car before the jack became alot taller. it tapers down toward the edge. Any way that you can post a pic of the entire jack?
just saw the pic on summit. can you instead measure how far back it goes before the jack becomes tall? im using it on my 300zxtt which is 3" off the ground but the jack points are too far back. Thanks in avance

One of the great things about this jack is that the jack frame height rises very gradually. It remains 3" or less in height from the center of the saddle to about 9" up the frame. It may not look that far in the picture but the angle of the pic skews things a little. I'm sure it's 9".
I still need to use a hockey puck or something similar on top of the jack pad because the Ings+1 skirts are tall.
