anyone know how i can get my hands on some scissor jacks for my integra. my old one fell to pieces. i'd like to have a floorjack, but can't seem to find one that fits lowered cars.

i have the lowered car problem too. i have to lift on a fender to fit a scissor underneath. anyways, you can find scissor jacks at your local dealer for probably alot of money. best bet would be hit up the junkyard and ask them for a honda or similar scissor jack.

Do a WTB in classifieds, I'm sure there are people with an extra one laying around.

Or you could just get a generic one from Northerntool.com or something. I think it's $8.99 for a 1 1/2 ton. I also saw them on Ebay, but people charge between $10-20 plus shipping for the OEM honda jacks.

I think you can get floor jacks specifically made for lower cars.

Yup, they sell them at Pep Boys, Autozone, Kragen, Sears, and California car cover.

whaaaa how the hell low is your car?! My car is pretty well slammed on 195/50 tires and I can still fit my factory scissor jack under the jack points w/ like 1" clearance at least.

However I can't get a floor jack anywhere under my car except the rear tow hook, unless I use my plywood ramps... hell I even have to use a floor jack on my rear tow hook just to get hydraulic lift arms underneath my jack points.

They're kind of a pain sometimes.... I would rather have one of those racing floor jacks w/ the wide single roller in front that goes down really low.

dang that's crazy, how can you even drive it on the street.... do your shock towers have dents in them from the upper controls arms hitting?

*edit*

to answer the original question, you can buy a scissor jack at Wal-Mart or AutoZone or most any other parts stores. They'll be w/ the jacks and jackstands and stuff.
