Default Quick Jack Uneven Weight.

Boy, do I feel like an idiot. I put the car up in the air since I need to do somethings to it. I try to take the wheels off but they're stuck. Everything I did wouldn't get them to break loose. No worries, I'll just slowly lower the car until the break loose. I did that and got the rear wheels off. Do the same thing, but with the fronts. Disaster, I just hear a bang and my car alarm goes off. Quick jack won't go up since the weight is uneven. I can get it to go up until it touches all jack pucks underneath my car. It won't go up any further. Any ideas to trouble shoot the hydraulic system, or should I just go buy a jack and get it up in the air so I can put the tires back on.

Buy or borrow a jack and carefully put the rear wheels on. Lower the Quick Jack all the way down and start over with your work.
