A pneumatic jacking assembly for lifting a vehicle includes an air bag that is selectively inflated. A first plate is coupled to the air bag. The first plate is positioned on a support surface such that the first plate is positioned beneath a vehicle. A second plate is coupled to the air bag and the second plate abuts the vehicle when the air bag is inflated. In this way the air bag lifts the vehicle for servicing the vehicle. A pump is coupled to the first plate and the pump is in fluid communication with an interior of the air bag. The pump inflates the air bag when the pump is turned on. The second plate is urged away from the first plate when the air bag is inflated to lift the vehicle.
