If you use the quick jack rubber blocks you may not be able to use typical “jacking pucks” like most here own for use with a regular jack. My car is just low enough that I could not use anything but the short rubber block provided with the quick jack. I would not use jack pucks only with a quick jack, you will damage the rockers and or the floor boards.

I use the jacking pucks with the lower rubber blocks with my quick jack, haven't had any issues.

I use only the 5000's small rubber blocks on Red's jacking points. They fit and work perfectly. There's simply no reason to use old-style jacking pucks with a quick jack.
