Message	return it. It just doesn't have enough lift range. When I did my subframe job a few years back I was trying to lift the rear (from the diff) and IIRC it didn't even give me enough lift to get the car on my jackstands' LOWEST setting! I promptly returned it and got the one I indicated. Sometimes "low profile" ain't all its cracked up to be. Inzane (formerly Z-Jay)
