After having 2 of the cheap Harbor Freight jacks bend and come close to dropping a car, I just cut some pieces of 2x10 lumber stacked 2 pieces high, and with one end beveled. I just drive up on the "ramps" then have room under the front to get my good jack under the car. Cheaper than buying a new jack.
