We save most of our PT 4x4 and 6x6 cut offs just for this purpose.
We jacked up a house that was like you're doing, and we buried RR ties! PITA...we'd run out a bottle jack (some lift, but mostly driving our pier deeper, Take the weight off with cribbing, add another piece of lumber, jack etc... until we finally got what we needed.
We replaced/added 27 piers under a P.O.S house at lake level. We did get a bonus to buy new clothes to replace what we ruined!
