Lifting the car about 40 inches

Does anybody have some good advice on how to lift the car about 40 inches? At least that is enough of room to sit down and work underneath. I saw some air lift bumper jacks for a reasonable price. Are they any good or is there a better alternative. Thanks

 

Scissor Lift

For Limited Space And Budget You Can Get A Scissor Lift, Various Vendors Out There, The Northern Equip Catalog Has A Few-i Think They Go Up About 4ft/little More Than That. Easy To Move-work On Household 110v

 

Skyjackin' a Buick

Johnno , are you doing a frame off ? If so a long chain and a few 4x4x8's jack stands & a cherry picker work well . That's how I did mine . It's a lot more involved than this but if you're planning on dropping the chassis a bumper jack wouldn't be much good .I scraped my Lark's underbelly and coated it with Duplicolor Truck Bed Liner . Came out beautiful . Let me know , I've got pics.

Just don't do it like this!!!!!!!!!!!

 

I wouldn't get under anything that was lifted by the bumpers, you're just asking for spot in the darwin awards if you do that. ou:

 

Good Lord! :spank: ou:

 

This whole thing makes me shudder

I love my Buick, but I'm not gonna commit suicide for it's sake
