Lowered cars and 4 post rolling jacks

[carsaremytoys]

Hi all, long time reader here. I've basically narrowed down which lift I'm getting.

I've read, I think, all the 4 post vs 2 post debates. But I've yet to see anything about using the rolling jack on a lowered car. The RJ in question is a 7k with 6-1/4 lowest height without the pad. So 7 ish.
Is the solution the same as with a 2 post lift to just drive onto some wood?
is this maybe the biggest gripe I'll have with a 4 post? Lol

Are you sure about the 6.25" when lowered and installed on the lift? Our sliding (not rolling) is about 5 cm above the ramps and we drive our low cars on the lift all the time with no problem.



EDIT: about 2 inches in freedom units:

I have Bendpak RJ-45 low profile version that is de-rated to 3500 lbs, I think. It is a little over 2 inches above the runners as I recall. There is a thread on low profile bridge jacks, I think, with some pictures showing measuring tapes and jacks so you can see the height. I can get my lowered turbocharged E36 M3 on my HD-9XW. Have to use 4 foot ramps to get on the lift.

only issue I've ran into with lowered cars and bridge jacks are the manually pumped versions.. If air/hyd bridge jack clearance wasn't an issue for lowered GT3 or GTR/M3

Bridge Jack?

Still contemplating a 4 Post lift, vs QuickJacks… If we go 4 Post, it’s definitely a Bendpak HD9XW… But the Bendpak Bridge Jack is just outrageously priced, and I’m not sure my Craftsman Pro 27 compressor even has the CFM it asks for.… I’ve seen mentions of airbag jacks, scissor jacks: Anybody...
