Go change your oil at one of those 10 minute oil change places.

Put a brick or 2 in front of the ramp. Gets it high enough once the tire is on the brick.

Hydraulic jack------Jack stands under the framework for safety reasons----and chock the back wheels so it can't roll backwards while up on the stands.


Or you could trade it in and buy a more practical model vehicle that wouldn't be so damn close to the ground so you can work under it.

Stair step a few 2x12's in front of the ramp. Or buy ramps made for low ground clearance vehicles

Take 2 equal length 2x6’s, about two feet long, and place them in front of the ramps. The car will climb onto the boards, it will raise the front end, and may get it high enough.

Afraid of it’ll step down onto the ramp and tear the bumper off.

I used to place them at the end of the driveway in the grass.

2x4 under the ramp but that's a steep angle and those ground affects are low.

Is that a GR86? I am thinking about getting one. How do you like it?

Just drive it up there. Your kid probably runs the front wheels to the curb parking anyway.

Get a couple pieces of cut 2x4 about 3 to 4 foot long and put one under each front wheel. That should give you enough clearance to get a floor jack underneath it. Then you can lift it up and either put it on jack stands or get it high enough to slide the ramps under the wheels.

Personally I'd just work on it with just jack stands as it gives you more room. If you want to keep using ramps, I suggest getting a set of race ramps and the extensions for them that lets you drive low profile vehicles up on to them.

Bigger question is, what are you trying to do after you figure out how to jack your car up? If you can't figure this out, you're headed for more complications shortly.

Oh wait, I understand now. Your wife sent you that pic and asked how to fix it.

Post a pic of her and I'll provide a contact to provide the services.
