Actually after checking 24" is the jack I was going to get:Low Profile Floor Jack - 2 Ton, Rapid Pump® Jack

Mine is smaller and goes to 20"

I wish there was a couple more inches of space sometimes...I can't fit the breaker bar in there (22" breaker bar)

not sure how to embed photobucket videos 2012-04-14_14-13-02_836.mp4 video by erkthejerk73 - Photobucket

That sounds like the "hiss" that HFC , TP and LTH make. You have any of those on your car. If you do, then it's normal

a general rule, hiss on deacceleration = normal, hissing, rattling, etc noises on acceleration need to be check out to make sure everything it tightened.

Then it's normal :tup:

just the noise the vq makes, once you put aftermarket CBe and change out the cats you will have that. The more open the exhaust, the more noticeable the noise.

For the front I think you will still need to drive up something or first jack up the front using the side jack points. Another member here has the long low profile jack, still can't get it to the front lift point.
