Default Quickjack

Just a little follow up. Ordered my quickjack on Friday and got it yesterday (wed). I think that is pretty good service coming from California to Illinois. Got it together and works like a charm. I recommend it.

Looks like a great solution.

Which model did you get?

Are the rubber blocks included?

I got the 5000 but think the 3500 would be ok. I wanted a little extra weight security plus I can use it on my other vehicles, Yes the rubber blocks came with it.

I'm thinking about one. I just don't think I like the idea of jack stands high enuf to remove the drive line

Looks really good and very useful for working on the car.

I'm interested in one. Are you at stock ride height? I am lowered on coil overs. Before that I could get on one of these no problem. Just curious in the difference. Thanks OP.

As far as I know my car is stock. The jack collapses to 3 inch. My car is around 5 1/2" to the pucks. Jack comes with 2" and 3" rubber blocks. Think I can use the 3" blocks. Will try tomorrow.

Do you drive over them and then lift or do you slide them under the sides??

There are pics on their website of ACRs, C6/7 vettes and lambos lifted up on them. I'd have to imagine they'd fit under a lowered C5. Go get some 2x4s and stack em 2 high to see if it'll fit under your car
