I wasn't trying to be an ***, just didn't want you to f up your car.

As far as getting it down, I dont think I want to recommend how I would try to get it down. I dont want you to bash me on here when you crush your rocker or fender.

I've never heard of so many problems trying to jack a car up. lmao.
:p

Jack lock was broken. A bit of hammering got the pin straight again and we were able to get it down. I'm gonna buy some race ramps to get it high enough I can use the k-member from now on though.

Yep. Apparently it's an older locking jack, and the pin was bent so once you got it up past a certain point, boom - you're stuck. We fixed it though

Ramps can be tricky on these cars too because of the nose sticking out so far
