I like them. Not sure on the cost. If I am going to buy something, it would need to be frame supported so the tires can be removed for brakes, rotation, etc.

I would bet you could slide them under the frame using the jacking pads as places to position them. They would be alot more solid than my crappy old lack stands.

Kind of looks like a pain to have to jack up each wheel several times depending on the height you want.

Never thought of that.

I had a neighbor with a Kwiklift. I'm sure some people like it, but when I saw it and what was involved in using it, I wasn't interested. This could be useful depending on your circumstances, although I wonder why the big secret regarding pricing such that you have to email for further information.

My thoughts exactly. They are interesting and should be substantially less expensive than the light I've been looking at. I agree if you could use them on the jacking pucks or jacking points they would be even more usesful.

I think the prices are right on the prices page.
Look around the forum.
99% of the guys love the kwik-lift.

That's for kwiklift not the lift stands. The stands you have to email for the price info.

Navybluevette

This is what I have, it works great and stores under the car.

Do you have the 3500 or 5000?

Navybluevette

I have the 3500

I see that the Quickjack's lowered height is 3"; do you use the included rubber blocks when lifting, or use jacking pucks? Is your car lowered at all?

Navybluevette

I have the leave in plastic BMW style jacking pucks. I also use the shorter rubber lifting blocks along with the pucks. You really don't need the pucks, but I'm to lazy to that them off. Yes my car is lowered and usually what I do when storing the "Quickkjack" I slide the jacks under the car from the side. I don't drive over them because the front spoiler just barley clears the lift.

About what do they cost? The stands don't go high enough.
