A jack apparatus is provided for lifting a low rider vehicle, even though the vehicle has very low ground clearance. The jack apparatus includes interfitting upper and lower subframes supported by a scissor lift. The upper subframe includes opposing parallel arms shaped to fit within a generally triangular cavity defined by the vehicle's tire and sheet metal and ground surface, such that the jack apparatus can engage the vehicle's tire and lift the vehicle without violating the generally triangular cavity, thus leading to a safer and better system for lifting the low rider without potentially damaging vehicle's sheet metal components. The jack apparatus includes width-adjustable arms and legs for flexible use, which are removable or collapsible to a very low shape for compact storage. Also, the upper subframe includes a table, allowing it to lift an ATV or motorcycle.
