i had a big piece of wood on a floor/trolley jack either side of my vitara, jacking the sills. i did this on both sides, and lifted the body evenly to prevent body studs from bending.

then, when i had enough room, i put 4 scissor jacks on the chassis rails to lift the body. 2 where the back tyres are, and the other two where the firewall is. i also kept the trolley jacks in place also.

watch for anything that might catch or pull out.

how big is the body lift your putting in? 2" or 3"?

i have a 3", and it took about half a day to put in.

is your kick a manual, or auto?

you can easily make your own.

IMHO, solid blocks are the only way to go, even though a lot of people use the budget box section type/method.
