4 regular jack stands sitting unused.
2 ramps (stored in the attic)
1 six foot home made pole jack made from a BMW front rotor, an old drive flange from a 912, a 6 foot piece of pipe, and the top half of a jack stand. It does NOT ever carry the weight of a car, it's only use is to hold up an engine while I pull the tranny.

1 2 post lift. (That's why I need the pole jack)

2 jack stands, a short (cheap) floor jack and a come-along.

2 jack stands and 2- 3000 lb. floor jacks on long term borrow.
