Any questions pm me.
Hi, I have a 77 and looking for a lift
How is the access to oil filter and Manual trans box? Also why the 1 x 6? Overall any issues / complaints / tip/ lessons learned? Would you purchase again or another style. A lot of questions and I appreciate your time to respond.
Regards,
Mike

Hi Mike,
Here's a Quick-Jack.
It lifts the car about 20". Not nearly as high as a scissors lift.
As you can see the access to the chassis and running gear is very good using a creeper.
Maybe a possibility?
Regards,
Alan

I love mine. I am an old fat guy and I can get under the car on a creeper. Full access front to back.
