I use the Torin racing jack (I think Rlee uses it also):

It has done me well! I would get a jack w/ a different kind of "footing" if you were going to use this outside more on "grainy surfaces." The front section is likely to get scuffed up, but I can easily get under my car with it.
Sadly, it doesnt fit into the spare wheel well
Or i havent tried at least.

How about a small flimsy jack to lift enough for the stock jack to work? I have some old scissor jacks I use for that purpose. It's a two-step process, but they are small and light.
