Recommended FloorJack for Lowered Car

Sorry if it has been discussed before... but can't seem to get the search function to work....

Can anyone recommend any floor jack that can go undernearth and lift up my car WITHOUT any ramps....

I'm about 2" lowered (tein SS) with RJ body kit installed (about the same ground clearance with aspec body kit)

Could use this one:

But me and a fellow member, what we do is, jack one side up with a scissor jack. Slide the floor jack underneath and then jack up from the center jacking points.

Hmm...

I can barely jack the side using scissor jack without the scissor jack hitting the RJ side skirt...

I've had one these low pro jacks for 3-4 years. Works great for me.

I have a craftsman floor jack similar to this one, but without the LED lighting. It works very well. I'm also lowered about 1.75 all around on Tein SS. One thing I like about craftsman is if it breaks you can take it back and they will replace it with a new one. Which I have had to do once already because it was leaking fluid. No questions asked. I received a new one about a week later, once it was back in stock.
