Need to drain oil but drop prevents it, help me out!

[THE WITCH KING.]

I added too much oil and my car is to low for my floor jack to fit under and I need an alternate way to drain some of my oil. I can't afford to buy a low pro jack at the moment. What do I do?

Drive the car up on some blocks of wood/some kind of ramp to get your jack under it.


/thread.

jack it up at a high spot in the front
add blocks
remove jack
move jack to a shorter location
repeat

Just be careful dude, we want to hear how you went!

Only use wood or old books, never use cinder blocks or bricks or anything like that.

solid block is ok. and i roll up on a 1x4 with a 2x4 ontop in it and its perfect

but if you can roll up on a solid block but cant jack it up, then take your house jack and trade it in lol

heres what i have to do since i cant drive up blocks

jack it up on the rear tow hook with low pro floor jack
place #1 oem jack on rear jack point
drop rear tow hook low pro floor jack
place #2 oem jack on forward jack point
place low pro floor jack on front tow hook
