sportlines - can you still clear a jack?

There's no way in hell, you can clear an average jack. I don't know how small they can make a jack, but I do know that there are some specialty jacks that you can get for as much as $500.
Just roll it up on to some blocks of wood and be done with it.

I have to lift mine by the fenderwell, to get my Craftsman
fat boy under the frame and it's only -1" (Hotchkiss). Low
profile might be worth the investment.
That, or you cut yourself some 2"x12" wood pieces and
drive up on them before jacking.

I've been looking into this recently.
I've got boxed sub-frame connectors and G2 springs (1.75" drop), which gives me slightly less than four inches from the SFCs to the ground.
Your average jack is about 5.5 inches at the lowest. But, I've found that WalMart started carrying a relatively inexpensive (less than $70) Torin with a 3.5 inch to 17 inch range. Harbor Freight also has a couple of models of "racing" or "low profile" jacks in the $80-120 range.
I've been using ramps to back up on, then using a jack under the SFC for setting jackstands. I'm probably going to pick up one of the jacks I mentioned though real soon. We've got a Harbor Freight in town.
