You could use bricks or blocks of wood to inch it up in stages if you have any lying around.

I've got a 3 ton floor jack that will go up 18" and you can have it. Pop over anytime...;)

thanks for the help, but i sorted it out, jacked up under the suspension rather than the chassis , had to let the tyre down to fit the block under it then pump it back up, but got there in the end :D
