Need to Raise my Tein Basics

I'm shipping my car to the mainland on tuesday and I went to raise the suspension up to the max height and I'm missing one of the wrenches. And I don't have a floor jack. Anybody able to help me out tomorrow? There's a twelve pack or a carton of cigarettes in it for you...

Can you drive up some blocks/ramps high enough to get a jack underneath? I doubt any jack I have can get low enough for you.

Yeah I have ramps that just barely fit under. Do you have a jack that's tall enough to pick it up off of a 12in ramp?

They're both fairly small floor jacks, but if you drive only part way up the ramps, they'll roll under and give you some lift.

Not sure on the exact height they go.

Do you have tools to adjust the suspension by chance?

I have tools, but nothing suspension-specific.

I do, however, have access to the military car craft shops, which have damn near everything. I need to go down and get my safety done on the car I haven't been driving for 3 months today anyway.
