Well I guess there is no interest in it.
I'm not going to give it away.

I thought so. I'll guess I'll put it up in the parts for sale section and see what happens.
I'd rather sell it to someone here before I put it on Craigslist.

I'm on my second one, having sold my first before I moved from Iowa to Texas. These units are great. Not as good as a lift, but sure a lot easier to use in your typical home garage. I've used mine for transmission swaps, exhaust installs, and about every kind of regular maintenance. Good luck with your sale!

Thanks, I'm getting a little old to be working under the cars anymore, that is why I'm thinking of selling it.

For any of you considering buying a Kwik-Lift, I want to tell you that it has been the single best purchase I've ever made in all the years I've owned my C4. I've had it a couple of years now and can't understand how I ever went without it. Buy one, you will not regret it.

I loved it when I was younger . Had some local guys here ask about it, I guess they thought I was going to give it to them.

I’m back and forth between kwiklift and the quick jack 5000 model. They’re both around the same price, but I feel as if the quick jack takes up less space when not in use, and you can remove wheels while using it. Anyone have any experience with both and could compare?

So the quick jack 500 is $800 and how safe is it ?

I just turned 70, and when I say, "I FEEL YOU PAIN", brother, you can believe it! A KWIK LIFT would be a step up from jack stands and cardboard (my former method). And, I think it would be preferable to a 2 or 4 post lift, simply b/c standing for long periods kills my hips! (arthritis).

"Getting old is NOT for sissies!" (as my mom used to say).

Paid $750 for a used one 4 years ago, best money I've ever spent!
