Hi,

I do my own oil changes and just recently got my car lowered on prokits and I used to jack the car up alon the sides, but now the jack doesn't fit. What does everyone do to change the oil on their lowered cars. TIA

pull the car up on some 2x4s and it should lift it up enough to get the jack under.

He uses a flor jack, not a scissors jack...

im lowered on sportlines and use a floor jack. I use the normal jacking points. Anyway, for the rear you can use the toe hook. For the front im not sure. I think theres a toe hook you can also use.

well what i do if i need to get under the car is...first put a jack on the rear lower control arm elbow, then i put another jack on the side i need to get to. then you can put the rear jack down or leave it like that. now if you are changing your oil that probably wont work very well. so sorry but that is what i do.
i also have a body kit and that i the main reason i can get a jack under there.
i also put the jack in the front tire well. but i cant do that anymore because of the kit. jut turn the wheel to the inside i believe and put the jack the control arm or whatever it is called.
well just my .02
peace

i jack my car up by getting 2 2x4's and put them under my front tires and drive the car up on them, then any floor jack will fit under your car so you can use your regular jacking points
