Unless I missed the point, I believe that Jwad's original question about vehicle ground clearance was that it would not be able to drive on to a KW lift. The road height might be fine, but some of the lifts that are available cannot accomodate low-ground clearance cars. I have seen where people have fabricated small ramps that allow the car to drive up onto some sturdy wooden boards (a couple of 2 x 12's bolted together) that run along side the lift pads and allow the car to clear the lift pads. Then the car can be raised using the lift. I borrowed a photo from a detailing web forum to illustrate.
The steel ramps to the sides of the lift are used for low-clearance cars to drive on to the boards that parallel the lift. FWIW
