8 Inches

The car on the lift is a uni-body. You would have issues with all vehicles that utilize a frame all trucks, truck based SUV's. If you look at the vehicle on the lift the pick up points are along the body seam mostly in line with the wheels. Frames on trucks and such are closer to the center...

I'm in Rhode Island. You know the smallest state with the biggest name. Biggest corruption too.
