Buy the jack. You will use it many times to come.
exactly!!

you want the rear as high as you can get it anyways so that tranny fluid doesnt dump out.

I would just go and buy a jack. Sooner or later you are going to need one anyways so why not just go and buy one. There is no need for an expensive, heavy duty jack but you can get a cheap one for regular maintenence on the car.

lol i can lay under my car and not touch any thing, but it's not lower (yet).. the tranny shouldn't leak fluid inless it was over filled to begin with... and why does everyone keep suggesting to buy a jack? did u guys miss where he said he don't have room for ramps in his DORM room? hell if he can't fit ramps he won't have much room for ramps and more colleges don't allow things like jacks in the rooms anyway

OK o/t but you need to start working out w/ weights. How much do you weigh?
