You'll find that some of the tool shops sell basic versions of these 'wheel trolleys' for around 100-150 a pair. Obviously not 'jacking style - but Im sure you can jack a car up - slide the wheel trolley under then move on to next

I found a set at a local retail outlet for $110, but I didn't ask if they are hydrulic, probably not for that price, I think I'd like to get the hydrulic ones though.
