Quick Jack Lift

It's a lot better than jacking up all 4 corners.

I wonder if you could use some 4 x 4 blocks?

Of all places HD had a good price on the truck extensions a while back. Bought a set but haven't used them....yet.

I was considering buying a 2 post mid lift set up but, it was more expensive than a floor plate, full 2 post lift.
I modified my garage to allow a full lift. A car can be raised fully, an suv of pickup not so much.

Did you just modify your trusses? That is the problem with mine. Height.

Yep,
To begin with, the footer was built of concrete block and the lumber started nearly a foot tall so, walls are almost 9 feet. I was sure that 2x6’s would carry the roof safely but, 2x8’s were less expensive so, I mod the trusses and screwed, bolted, and nailed it all together. Best thing I ever done, even if it did cost me a toenail. Being over 60, laying on concrete floors just wasn’t making a hobby more enjoyable.
24 x 40 isn’t big enough but, it’s gotten a little better.
