Photos of C3's on QuickJacks
We have sold quite a few members QuickJack's and would like to see some C3's on them! We have a fellow member looking to see exactly how much height there would be from the ground to the frame of his C3, so any measurements would help out the fellow forum members!!

Hi GE,
In these pictures the QuickJack is at it's lower safety point.
There are 14" clear at the engine crossmember at the lower safety point and 18" at the upper safety point.
If find if I'm working from the floor the lower safety point is more useful, but if I'm working from a creeper the upper safety point is good.
Like it a lot!
Regards,
Alan

My '80 on the Quickjacks as we speak- rearend work and pulling the diff. I love 'em. My Vette garage is too short for a post lift, but these feel stable and allow for work I wouldn't have tried on jackstands. About 19" from floor to frame on one rubber block.

Hi 929,
I've been using just the thicker rubber blocks.
I can understand your situation though.
The instructions do indicate that both sets of blocks can be used for more height.
Perhaps Garage Enthusiast can offer some suggestions to get you a few more inches in a safe way.

Alan

Hi Dick,
Yes, with the jacks in their lowered position there's enough room to use both sets of blocks and then begin lifting.

Hi Alan thanks for the figures. Are you using both blocks with the lift or just the thicker one. My concern is I am 5-10 280 lbs, on my ramps I can slide under the car but just barely. Is there room for a thicker block between the jack and the frame? Thanks to all that have replied. And as someone else says Alan your garage looks like you are in your living room.
