I just bought a creeper at Kragen last night, when I got home I realized it
is a 36" creeper.

I am 6'3" tall.

I did some looking around and see thay 40" and 42" creepers are also made.

I didn't take it out of the box yet.

Have a feeling it is too small.

Would a 40" work or should I get a 42" for someone as tall as I am?

Measure from your a.s cheeks to your head, that's how long it needs to
be.

Do you have someone who can add the additional length for you? Think
like the expandable dining room table. You want something like the
leaf to add support or just use metal rods with clamps to adjust to
fit.

Its taking all the strength I can muster not to post the obvious punch
line. ;-)

Return the one you have and have them get one that will fit you. I
doubt very seriously that any modifacation will work or be value
effective. If you can't return it give it away.

I like using a creeper sometimes but most of the time I use a large
sheet of cardboard. Works great.
