Lifting a Vehicle over a Pit

If it is not big enough and some DIY effort, then it's not big enough and some DIY effort - safety concerns there.

Flat smooth concrete for jacking and lifting gets my vote!

It is big enough when the car is slightly out of the garage.

This means that for easy jobs that require no jacking I will park it 50% over and have plenty of room for an oil change for example, and an escape route.

For jobs on each corner that require jacking and wheel removal I wouldn't be down in the pit, but the car would be parked over it as that is where there is space. All I was looking for was a safe, easy method of jacking.
This post is an artistic work of fiction and falsehood. Only a fool would take anything posted above as fact.
