Default jack for the accord

Can anyone recommend a jack that i can use to lift my '94 accord sedan far enough off the ground? I brought a standard 2 ton jack from Autozone yesterday, but even at the max height it hardly gives me enough space to change my oil.

I went over my friends house this past weekend to put on my new exhaust system. :grinpimp: We used a pneumatic jack called the "Load Buster" :chuckles: to jack up the car, and rested it on four jack stands. It was probably a little over a foot off the ground. The jack looked a little old though...

get the 2.5 ton jack. it cost 3x as much, but it lifts almost twice as high. i was able to get the exhaust off my civic w/o any probs. i changed my shifter (right under the middle of the car) w/o probs too

Oh yeah I forgot to mention the jack and the jack stands could lift 3 tons.
