QuickJack Lift System

I'll insert my 2 cents in on this. I trust the Quickjack far above jack stands. I never use stands other than the Quickjack.
It would be rather difficult to use both IMO.

I could not agree more! Jack stands are NOT needed. The car is very solid when up on the QJ. I've done exhaust and brake work and the car does not move one bit even if you are tugging on a breaker bar.

Another great advantage is getting the car higher up when working in the engine bay. While I was installing the super charger kit, I kept it up on the first level so that my back wasn't getting bent over. It helped a bunch and allowed me to work on the top and bottom of the car.

My 1977 Fiat Spider is a pain (literally) to work on because it sits so low to the ground. Lifting it up makes it far easier to work on. I feel perfectly safe with the car lifted and the engine running.

Well, when I first lifted the Z, on the first set of stops, I let the safety arms go over them, made sure that the release cams were in the up position so that it doesnt cause the bar to go over the stop. As I was lowering the QJ to engage the safety stops, one side popped over the safety stop, it literally popped, scared the crap out of me. Tried again, same thing. So as of now, if I need to use it on the lower setting, I just lower it so that the bars just touch the safety stops.

When its in the high position, its fine. But it still kinda makes me iffy, hence the jackstand backup. I had a friend in HS who was crushed working on his van a few weeks after graduating.

Dude F that noise, you need to contract the manufacturer. I put jackstands underneath as well, but I only have two SUV-sized ones so those go on the end that I'm working under.

Agreed, you need to contact QJ for a solution, this is unacceptable. I do not have this problem, nor should you or anyone with this jack.

Which model do you have, I have the 7000SLX
