Rep Power: 0 hope you got some coilovers and aren't lowered too low. its a pain in the *** but if oyu have coilovers it s easy. if oyu have springs and your really low oyu may have to take the sides off.

Rep Power: 0 just get a floor jack. I think they're cheaper than flat jacks, but I'm not sure. If it's lowered, you'll need to run the car up on a couple 2x4s and then jack it up from there. DO NOT leave the car on the 2x4s and crawl under to change your oil - the boards are not sturdy enough to be considered safe.

Rep Power: 0 I think most of us have this prob, I know I do.
I have to drive up on some boards to be able to get the jack under the car. As well I cant go to Honda to have the car serviced anymore because they dont have any jacks I can go on, I need to go to some place that has a pit.

I have a friend with a full black widow kit and neupseed sport springs on his 99 civic. We had to take his spare jack and set it to the side of the car...then took a lift and put it in the front of the car. While he raised the car up with his hands in the front of the car....I slid the lift under to raise it a little in the front...enough so he could get the jack on the side of the car under and start to raise the car higher. This was all for an oil change
