How do you guys store your quick Jack's when not in use? Mine are just on the floor but I would like to.maybe hang them on the wall somehow. Let me see some ideas.
Mine are secured against the wall with chain. Bungee cord will not support them if they fall. I built a shelf to get the power unit off the ground. Space on the floor is limited.

Just my .02, but I would use something stronger than a bungee cord to stop them from falling into your car.
Yeah, thanks. The bungee isn't really doing anything as the Quick jacks are leaning well against the wall. I might check out the hangers though - it would be just my luck to have a freak seismic event.
mine fit under my vette. I have the 7000slx and they fit under my c6 at factory ride height.
I also have the 7000slx and my car is supposed to be stock ride height but I have to jack each side up individually before the will slip under the jack points. Leaving under the car is not an option for me.

i can't speak to the jack points as I just got my quickjack setup last weekend and didn't have time to actually lift the car up but hope to use it this weekend to change the diff fluid on my car. I measured the lowest points on the car and it was 5.5 to 6" and the quickjack is 3.6" off the ground so it clears by about 1". I don't know if the jacking pucks will fit or not when I pull them out to get the car in place, hopefully I don't need to jack up the car to jack up the car (that seems counter intuitive.

I use aluminum pucks and they will not clear. I just jack forward puck on each side to unload the suspension and then when I let the car down I have plenty room. I wonder if you can go without pucks and only use the rubber blocks.

Dewhel has some nice low profile aluminum stay in place pucks. They may work to give you the little bit of clearance you need. I have the QuickJack 5000 and the plastic stay in place pucks, and no issues. But I should have gotten these aluminum pucks from the beginning, much nicer.

I use mine very often--even when I am not going under the car. Raising the car up to a working height even when doing something as simple as cleaning the interior or waxing the sides of the car makes life so much easier.
I either slide them to the wall on either side or slide them together and park over them. Then just roll up the hoses and store them with the hydraulic unit on a shelf.
