Default Quick Jack Dolly

I recently purchased a Quick Jack 7000TLX for my home shop. It went together really well, no leaks or other problems. It lifted my full size Toyota Sequoia 4x4 with ease. Anyway, it didn't take long to look like it was going to be all over the place with hoses, lift blocks and cords, both power and lift/lower switch. I thought about it and went to Harbor Freight and picked up a $49.00 welding cart. Everything fits like it was made for the Quick Jack. Unit on top, pull handles on second shelf, and the rubber lift blocks on the bottom shelf. The heavy steel truck lift adapters fit perfectly on the back where a welding tank should fit. Anyway, thought I would share for you guys with the Quick Jack and still tripping on the hoses and cords.

That would take up more room for me. I have a big hook on the wall that the hoses and cord hangs from. As soon as I'm finished I just disconnect the hoses since they are quick disconnect at both ends. No tripping and they hang on the wall out of the way with the pump against the wall underneath them. Looks like a good solution for you though.

I use the QJ wall hangers. Storing the pump is sometimes a PITA . I still like entire QJ system.

I too have the wall hangers, my 7000 is 100 lbs.+ each. My hangers are placed so I only have to lift them a couple inches.

They are heavy. I keep mine literally 1inch off the ground.

NOT me...... No need to hang them ..... I just disconnect the hoses, coil them up and hang on the side of my roll away tool box. I leave the two two lift frames laying flat on the garage floor push together under my daily driver..... although they would actually be fine under the Corvette. I slide the powered pump unit under the side of my roll away tool box which as a side box hanging on one side. Fits under there on the floor perfectly out of the way.

I have the same welding cart but I use it for my welder and argon bottle.
The QJ's lie on the floor and under my truck. Everytime I've looked to get a pair of hangers, they were out of stock. Perhaps this XMas they are in.

I leave the Jack's on the floor and park over them. Lifting those heavy things on the wall isn't for me. As far as room, my shop at home can hold 6 cars. Also have a nice clean barn that will hold 4 cars. Also a 2 garage attached to the house. Plenty of room to store what ever I want. The cart is to make it easier to move the pump and lift blocks around without having to carry them. The shop came with the house. It is 60 feet wide, by 35 feet deep. Full bath with a shower. Two roll up doors 22 feet wide x 14 feet high. Ceiling inside is 16 feet tall. All sitting on 3 acres in Sonoma Ca.

You're living good, I'm not so fortunate, I only have an 800 square feet garage in the arm pit of America. Fits three cars and small working area with bench, tool boxes, compressor, grinder, etc.

With space like that I would have a full lift for sure.

Good thinking and sounds like the cart does the job well for you.
