QuickJack SUV/Truck adapters

Hi everyone!

Have any of you used the SUV/Truck adapters with the 3500SLX to get some extra height?

The website says: "While QuickJack's truck adapters will technically fit in the lifting trays of every model, high-stance trucks and SUVs will weigh over 3,500 lbs. This makes them unsuitable for use with the BL-3500SLX. Plus, the BL-3500SLX features a shorter frame that most likely wouldn't provide adequate balance for longer wheelbases."

I can't imagine there would be any issues using it to lift a sub-3000lb C5, but I'd love to hear first hand experience.

I don't have a answer to your question but if Quickjack has a Easter sale on the truck adapters I'm going to order a set.

They just arrived today. I’ll give them a shot this weekend.

if you don’t hear back from me, I either forgot to respond here or I died. 50/50 shot.

Hoping it turns out to be the former rather than the latter.

Jack the car up on quickjacks, then lower it onto jackstands, add the booster blocks, then raise the car back up on quickjacks. That should get you the height needed, but just adds a few more steps. Might take you a few tries to line it all up.

I didn't die lol.

The car is already on 10" Crib Cruisers, so it doesn't add any extra steps. The Crib Cruisers make using these wheel dollies super easy.

The truck adapters worked wonderfully. I can get under the car with my shitty creeper with room to spare!
