QuickJack Lift System

240se

A friend let me borrow his Quickjack when I changed my diff bushings. I used the pinch weld block on top of the short solid block. I didn't like having to stack them and kept an eye on the blocks but it was solid and stable the two days it was up.

My only complaint about the Quickjack is that they are heavy. You need to configure your garage so you don't move them around very much.

Agreed, I was initially very uncomfortable stacking them. Ended up gorilla-taping the pinch weld blocks to the short blocks so I could be sure they were aligned correctly.

My set up is extremely stable. My Z is up on it all winter, for the last couple years. Just did a break job. Love this system!

Does anyone have experience using this system on a plastic tile floor, like RaceDeck?

Considering getting such a floor and wondering whether the relatively small surface area of the quickjack would deform the tiles. Thought ab getting plywood to put under the quickjack but I measured it and I couldnt get the blocks onto the rails if i did plywood.

I have mine on asphalt and its fine. Ive had the Z on it for 2 weeks straight. QJ said it has the same footprint as a normal car on 4 wheels.

Mine is on my garage floor which is smooth flat concrete.

Dammit... here I was looking for a reason not to spend 800 bucks and you just took that reason out behind the barn.

The footprint of the QJ is fairly large so it should work fine on a racedeck floor. It is really stable too.

Worth every penny!

Do you guys put this away when not in use or does it live on the floor under the car permanently? I have a 1 car garage (which is also our laundry room and my amateur wood shop....it's cramped) and no real place to store something like this unless it can just stay in place....

Dragging my 100+lb low-profile-long-reach jack around and getting the car on stands often becomes a laziness barrier to me working on the car. If I could leave this thing in place all the time I would be a lot more motivated (at least that is the thinking).

Its low enough that I can store it directly under my Nismo.

I back into my garage starting at an angle when I park, so it would scrape my exhaust. I just stand them up against the wall. Theyre freakin heavy so they arent going anywhere just as long as you dont stand them up with the wheels at the bottom.

I have to literally carry each ramp when I move them because my garage is asphalt, so the laziness thing always creeps in when I have to use them, but I think about how much more work it takes to use a floor jack and jack stands and get over the laziness.

Similarly, anyone use this on epoxy floors?
I got mine a few weeks ago and have used it maybe a dozen times already between my cars and my friends'. Everyone loves it.

I plan to get the currently concrete floors epoxied this summer, but am worried how that will hold up to dragging and repositioning the quickjacks.

I imagine you could glue some rubber to the bottom to avoid scratching... or move it around on a piece of cardboard.

My wife just ordered one of these for me (yes she's a good wife, I think I'll keep her). I'm very much looking forward to not dealing with jacks/jack stands/etc!

Did she order the pinch-weld blocks as well? You really do need them.
