I bought some of this

I'm going to drill holes then use a countersink bit and screw it into the bottom of the quickjack. I tested the material and it slides across concrete easily

Worked through my first time set up issues with my Quickjack and it worked perfectly! Did my work under my car with plenty of room underneath. Should have purchased this thing sooner!

They are on sale again on Costco.com for $999.99 from today until 2/13. Not the same as $899 last year but I pulled the trigger.
My local store didn't have them so I had to get them delivered but shipping was free.
Thought I would pass it along.
