For lifting the car I suggest using ft long segments of 2x6 wood that are stacked up higher. Lift the car slowly and slide the wood in place of the bricks on one side to the desired height then move to the other side. This allows you to incrementally lift the car until it's safely centered on all segments of wood and to the right height.

GL on replacements and I hope the thieves get caught!
