Default Quick Jack ????

Hey guys,
Looking to purchase a quick Jack in the near future, couple of questions for the guys that use them.
1 - Which one is everyone getting for the C7 that works best, I see there is 500slx or 500ext
2 - I also have a 1963 corvette that I want it to work on. Is it adjustable for different frame lengths? would I just put the blocks at a different placement to make it work on other vehicles. Just thought I would ask here first prior. Thanks

I have the quick jack 3500. I used it on my C6 many times have not used on my C7 yet as it only has 2000 miles on it.
I use it on my 1967 Chevy Nova and my 1962 Corvette. It is adjustable to a certain amount. Its a great tool. My biggest complaint is that it is a little heavy. But once you use it a few times it is worth it.
Hope this helps.

The 5000SLX works fine for my 2017. Extended version was not available when I bought mine. You can find the specs including the length available for each model on their web site.
Yes, you move the blocks to adjust the length.
I would buy the longest model that fits your needs. I have two fitted 4X6s that I use on mine for vehicles that require further apart lift areas.
