- 2008 Mazda 5
What is a good low profile jack for the Mazda 5 front lift point? Specifically thinking about the 2nd generation Mazda 5 (mine is a 2008).
Ramps used to scare me. I never used them on anything. Then for my bday 4 years ago friend gave them to me.Thanks for the advice. Driving onto some 2x4 sounds like a winning idea. Not so high that it would damage the vehicle if I missed or pulled forward too far, but high enough to get the jack in there; also super cheap.
Ramps make me nervous. Partly because I don't trust the cheap ones and partly because I am exactly the kind of clumsy fool that would unwittingly put the car into forward instead of reverse when trying to pull off of them.
Will take a look at the harbor freight jack. My current bargain basement hydrolic jack seems like it is heading down and should probably be replaced, even if it was short enough and had enough reach.
