An in-place automotive vehicle servicing system for servicing vehicles while in a parking lot or the like utilizes a servicing vehicle carrying a vehicle lifting apparatus. The vehicle lifting apparatus has a telescoping central beam with two pivotal cross-beams. The lifting apparatus is collapsed for carrying in the servicing vehicle, and is extended beneath a vehicle. Jacks carried at the ends of the cross-beams are positioned at the lift points of the vehicle to be serviced, and the jacks are operated to lift the vehicle. A control device is mounted with the lifting apparatus, and includes a computer to provide servicing information about the vehicle to be serviced, and preferably for assisting in aligning the jacks with the vehicle lifting points.
