How does everyone get their cb in the air?

i have a pretty low profile 3 ton jack that my dad got from his company that was usually used to jack oil trucks up and i got a couple of jackstands

what kind is that?

I got it from Harbor Freight. It's made in China, but it works really well...only takes a few pumps and the car gets up quick. Can't remember what I paid, I think around a hundred bucks.

That is what I thought it was. I was considering it for my next jack, but no one I know has owned it before.

I use a autozone jack. it even fits under my dropped civic.


as for ramps, I use old metal ramps. but I first drive my wheels over 2 bricks to raise the car up a bit.

man you have to be pretty slammed not to be able to get the regular honda jack under there. its height is 3.25 off the ground. my ride is 2.5 of the ground but that due to my body kit beyond the kit i have clearance. i just use the regular honda jack to raise it like 6 inches or so then i slide my 3 ton pro series jack under there to raise it like a foot or so and then place jack stands. oh and make sure you chock and set your e-brake. i was so anixous one time and forget to set the brake and i dropped my car twice,lol. it must have rolled forward like a foot and an half after it slammed.

I always strip the threads on the scissors jacks. I can't believe all you guys still have a honda jack that works. Mine didn't last one year, and I have f'ed up 2 others that were more heavy duty.

With this jack I can lift the hole front of the car high enough from the tow hook and place jack stands on both sides.

I can't believe you guys still have the stock scissor jacks. Mine broke after just a few uses.

i saw this jack at a local auto store. very light and strong. but very expensive on the same note. but the honda jacks is made for quick tire changes. not made to really support a car past 5 mins,lol. my cb9 is like 500lbs heavier that you guys cb7's. so if the honda jack works for mine, i know it will work for you all. mine did finally break down after 5 years though and was replaced with a 2 ton to work in conjunction with my 3 ton pro series jack.

I just hit third get coming out of the corner and am able to get up to 80-85 before the railroad tracks. Watch the throttle while airborne, feather it or get a soft rev limiter cause you gotta keep the RPMs consistent with your speed so you dont get thrown off when the front wheels hit the ground again....
