Does anyone make a saddle to fit on a floor jack that would help with replacing an 8 and 3/4 center section?
 
@andyf made a nice one.

That looks like part of a street sign post.

Strong.

I like it.

I've used a street sign post like that to extend a chain about 8 feet to pull a car into the shop.

Yep, the county “donated” it. That stuff is tough as hell, and it already had all the holes drilled.
 
I tried this, it helped but didn't work as well as I hoped. It needed more control of the angle to really work well.

It looks like the "cats ***"! Did you need to adjust the floor?

It was a while ago, I don't recall having to make adjustments beyond raising and lowering the jack, but I remember the center section rubbed pretty hard on the bottom going in and I was worried about damaging the gasket.
