Default Where to buy a low profile floor jack?

Hi guys:

Has anyone purchased a low profile floor jack for use with your really lowered honda? Conventional floor jacks are too big and won't fit in tight places to enable raising your vehicle. I'd like to know where i can get a hold of one of these units.

You can also use your stock jack to jack it up enough... then use the conventional jack.

I'm sure someone will also mention driving onto something and then jacking it up.

Yea, thats what i normally do but gets tiresome. I'd rather have a good low profile unit and do it much quicker.

You don't consider 3.5" low profile??? That's only .4" more than the AC unit shown ... but only weighs about 1/2 at only 35lbs - that is a fabulous jack for the $$$$$$$
Incidentally the one at Kragens is virtually identical (be willing to bet made by same manufacturer & "Badged" accordingly) - except it doesn't come in cute colours.
