    4x4 wood blocks (ideally around 12-14" long) stacked on top of the jack.

    Buy one 8' 4x4 post at home Depot, cut it into (8) 12" sections, and you're covered for years. Total cost ~$25

    Tell the wife it’s time to install a lift in the garage. To save money on oil changes.

    I didnt own a jack at all so it was a lot cheaper. If I had a normal floor jack already I'd probably just be getting some lumber

    I dont recall, sure it was Amazon or harbor freight probably. But it is a heavy duty unit, big one in its own case, think a 12 ton. Love it. Portable, much easier to store than a garage jack, extends high but also adjust low enough to use for other vehicles, campers, etc.

    Grab a 2x12 at the lumber yard and cut a few slabs. Place them under your jack to basically form a raised floor.

    You can mod the on board jack as well to be higher (with wood bolted on or concrete plastic bases like I did).

    In the garage I have a floor jack that goes at least 24” and has an extension you screw up before jacking (3” lift and 34.4” tires).

    I have the harbor freight jack cross beam with adjustable feet on the sides. Bought for my lifted tacoma and f250, but haven't used it on my tundra yet.Screenshot_20240506_142222.jpg
