I "borrowed" a pallet jack from work to move some things around the house. When I slid the forks under the car, I can just slide in two 2 x 4's to fit between the car and the forks. It picks it up about 7 1/2". Enough to get the wheels off the ground.
It has a rating of 6000 pounds. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) Next I'll slid some long 4x4's all the way under it and pick the whole thing up. Kids don't try this without adult supervision.

Paul,
why the jack? With what your car weighs, you should be able to just pick it up and move it around (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) |
