My ten ton mini ram (to lift the item) is about 1/6" too tall.


Given a huge lack of detail, general advice follows.

Insert lever, place ram under lever, lift item 2/6 inch, shim/block,
remove ram and lever, place ram under item, lift.


Yep pretty much what I planned to do. Would have been so much simpler if
the slightly smaller 5 ton mini ram had been in stock locally. Oh, well.
