For those who are using a Quickjack with the C8, which model are you using and how well do you like it?

You'll have the benefit of a lot of C8 owner opinions in the above links. If buying a new one, just become familiar with the various models and the one best for the C8. I love mine.

Used a new 7000 EXT all day on the C8. Worked very well.

I have the 5000 EXT. It's perfect size. Love it. Have had my car on it a dozen times, as well as 2 of my neighbors C8's. Set up time till car is up in the air in less than 5 minutes.

Can get up to 21 inches of clearance. Enough for oil and filter changes, brakes, DCT fluid and filter changes, removing rear or front bumper assemblies, or side panels, exhaust work. etc.

My friend and neighbor, Jeff just got his Silver Flare C8 a couple weeks ago and 3 days after getting it, we had it on the lift to install his high wing and front (5VM) splitter and screen grill guards !

Lots of threads and comments about this already so I won't rehash it. I just have one recommendation: I would go with a 5000EXT or TLX over the 7000 versions, unless you definitely have a need for the extra capacity. I got the 7000 and the frames are really really heavy, hard to move around. They are also a 1/2" higher, which makes a big different when you have such low cars. Mine barely fit under my Mustang, which isn't really that low.

Have the same model with the adaptors for the trucks, works on the C8, 4Runner and F150 Raptor. Great investment !!!
