Low profile jack stands?
Low profile jack stands?
The TL being a fairly low profile car, I have to use a low profile hydrolic jack to lift it, but then the maximum height is lower than any standard jack stands minimum height. Can anyone suggest an adequate quality/load tolerance low profile jack stand? What do you folks use? (I used to use ramps with a downhill driveway but don't have access to that anymore).

1st, drive the car onto a pair of 2x10's. Or double/tripled-up, nailed to each other.
2nd, you might need a hockey puck (or two) on your jack to now make up the difference of how much higher the car is.
3rd, I LOVE my big red jack-stands; yes they're about x3 the price of normal stands, but they're aluminum, and have a nice flat base as to not dig into the driveway. I've had them about 15 years now, along with 3 pairs of traditional stands and I always opt for the Big Red's whenever possible.
