Picked up a 2000kg jack for about $100(on sale), much easier to work on the car with it, only takes a few cranks to get it up. One problem is the bottom of the sump is the same height as the top of the jack when the suspension is “set”, so you need to push the car up a bit to get it underneath, but when you lower it it’ll be 1cm above the jack which stops me crushing the sump I guess.
Cheap 1250kg jack before that still works, cost me $30 I think on sale, served me well and is useful for holding parts in position or levering up parts when you need both hands.
