There are dozens of ways to stow your QuickJack in a garage: lean them against the wall; stack them on top of each other; tuck them together under your vehicle, etc. The opportunities for easy storage are practically endless.

Some people prefer to hang their frames on the wall, up and out of the way. These convenient hangers are the best way to make that happen.

If you'd like to hang your portable car lift frames on the wall of your garage, our exclusive hangers mount directly into a sturdy wall stud for safe, simple storage. A rounded hanging plate accommodates all QuickJack models. Just make sure you mount them at the correct height!



Each mount features a sleek, laser-cut QuickJack logo to provide visible proof that this is the OFFICIAL QuickJack wall mount set. These wall hangers were designed and engineered by the same minds that designed your QuickJack portable car lift, so you know rigorous testing standards were applied and unparalleled safety factors were built in. Real-world testing and advanced computer analysis were performed to ensure quality and long-term resilience.

We know you'll be impressed by how durable your hangers are. Plus, they look great in any garage environment. If you've been looking for a way to vertically suspend your QuickJack frames, these hangers offer the perfect solution.

SCREWS AND OTHER HARDWARE INCLUDED. MUST BE INSTALLED INTO WALL STUD.



A - Width4.75" (121 mm)

B - Height6.75" (172 mm)

C - Depth2.25" (57 mm)

Weight (ea.)1 lbs. (0.5 kg)

Lets say I chose to store them under the car and just push them together in the middle. Shouldn't ever happen, but if you were to drive over one(kid, wife, etc), anything to hurt or robust enough to not be phased. Guessing fittings and such are tucked well into the frame when collapsed? In this scenario, all lines removed, just the jacks stored in middle under the car.

OK. I just ordered my Quick Jack today direct from QJ by phone. HD was out where I live and am not a Costco member. Talked with Robert at QJ and he made a good deal for me by phone. Bought the 5,000 for $150 off and he threw in the wall hangers at n/c. I probably could have saved a few more bucks shopping around, but since I'm a lazy old gezzer, I took the easy way out. Been wanting one since I saw it at Carlisle last year but like I said I'm a lazy old gezzer. The recent posts got the fluids flowing again, so I pulled the trigger today. Thank's OP for the kick in the a##.

Well...seeing that my walls are exposed block and not stick lumber construction I'm going to have to say that a masonry drill bit and correct sized Tapcons would be my route.
Thanks for posting the hanger info...those look quite nice.

I keep looking for the model of the 5000 folks are buying for their C5, any suggestions? Frank

like mcropper said, Costco seems to be the most popular choice for the 5000lb set.

I would have bought mine from Costco but that deal came out months after I had already purchased mine.

I got the same one, but from Home Depot because I'm not a Costco member. It's definitely worth the money.

Good call. Home Depot did have them on sale at the same time Costco did when I bought mine. I just chose Costco to ensure I wouldn't have any return issues if needed haha

Best investment I have made in my car hobby. You will wonder how you ever got by without it.

My vette is rock solid stable when on the quick jack.

Out of curiosity, is a quick jack lifting the car high enough to do things like a clutch job, can you drop the transmission at the height it goes to? I have a few jobs coming up I want to do, such as putting insulation in the tunnel to reflect some of that heat and keep the car cooler inside.

I had the same question before I bought mine. Yes you can swap your clutch with it. The bottom of the car will be 19.5" off the ground and it'll move frontwards / backwards 12"

Here is a picture of my Jag (same dimensions for a C5)

I just tried out the quick jack 7000slx on my 04 Z06 and it was rock solid stability. That was just on the first locking position. Btw, the lower air dam does tap the quickjack when the car rolls over them.
