Wow, lots of work. If I were you I would remove those cinder blocks, and replace them with blocks of wood. Doesn't take much for one of them to crumble.

Indeed, they don't creak a bit before they go, they just go >BOOM< and you're looking at a car that's now 8" lower than it was before, resting there in a cloud of cement dust.  Hopefully no one is under there when that happens.  For safety's sake, please use a different material. 

It looks like a fun, if not daunting, project.   ;D
