You still need the pucks and I also used the rubber blocks that come with the jack
The locking mechanism has many stops , Quick Jack as a video of them cutting the cylinders while holding weight and the jack did not flinch
Had my car up on it for 3 days and never worried about it coming down
First day I had stands placed inside of jack just incase but after working on it I did not feel the need . Shook the heck out of the car , it is not moving

Thank you very much for posting pics. This is very helpful, but man, it still looks tight against those side skirts.
I have used my QuickJack 7000 on my previous C6, C7 Stingray, SS, Avalanche truck and wife's Cruze with no issues. I park my C7 Stingray, NOT lowered, over the QuickJack when not in use. The front air dam very slightly drags over it when pulling in and out of the garage. Great piece of gear. Not a worry in the world it will collapse even if it looses hydraulic pressure thanks to the cam locks. Good luck.

Great to hear,I will get my 7000 by the 3/4 mark of April. Do you use the pucks or the rubber supplied with the Quick Jack. I have a small sheet of 5/8" thick red rubber( very dense ) that I may put to use, will test these out when it come in.
Thanks for the input !

To those who are interested in Jack Pucks a word of warning DO NOT get the hard plastic ones that some CF forum vendors sell. First time I used them and it broke and almost caused the jack to cut into my fender. See attached.....

Rich,
I use both the pucks and center them to the rubber pads provided by the QJ for the C7. If you use just the QJ pads you need to be very careful as it can still crack your rockers if not lined up correctly. No worries about that with both pucks and the QJ pads.
Thanks,
Once I get my 7000 I will work to make a safe combination to lift the 'Vette. I made these pucks ( with the info. I received here from our generous members )
Thanks,
You might want to think about the 12v version. It lifts at least twice as fast and it's great to use on a trailer if you track as long as you have a battery. I don't use jack stands under mine either. I don't think they're gonna fail the way they're set up. Building a new shop now and putting a Mohawk system 1 10k 2 post lift in that.

I use pucks and eyebolts. Mine just don't have the wood piece. The only thing I don't like is how the rubber blocks sag in the middle. I need to cut some steel plates to spread the load out a little more. I have plenty of room though, even with ACS side skirts.
Jeff,
The reason for the wood was for them to fit inside the cup of my floor jack. So you would put a piece of steel between the rubber on the jack and the puck ??
Thanks
Rich
Pretty much. I'm just going to make some square steel plates that are the same size as the QuickJack blocks. It's only to spread the load more evenly across them. It's fine the way it is now, but I'm concerned about the longevity of the blocks.
Or maybe I'm just over thinking this. I do that a lot.

The leave in aluminum pads are fairly cheap and they work. I track my car and wanted something that wouldn't fall off and that would work if someone else lifted the car. These work great and they don't move.

Where did you get the aluminum pucks from ?
