Street Hockey pucks
 
Anyone used these for lifting car up via a trolly jack? I am thinking they are softer but not sure if they would colapse or not.

That is one great idea.....It shape and size and the material itself is very
strong......Than again I'm not a real doctor....

Yeah. I had originally gone to Sport Authority to get some regular hockey pucks, but all they had was the softer street hockey pucks. I very much doubt I could use these on the pinch welds? But however, I was thinking to use it with the trolly jack.

Not sure about a street hockey puck.

I use an ice hockey puck with a slit cut in it for jacking up the Z on the side pinch rails. I turn the puck over when I jack up the Z using the center garage jack points. No issues whatsoever.

I do the same only for the rails, I forgot who's original idea it was, but I'd marry them, I don't turn it over at all though

Okay I will report back after I use the street hockey puck after next oil change.

I will also be ordering one of those solid grooved ones for the pinch rail


LOL..

Your doesnt look like the protech ones that you linked from website. On your one the base is lipped.

EDIT.

Then I googled and see this..

I have a Protech one and it's black. Actually two of them. Mine are the smaller one. I cut about 1" off of one of them since the pinch weld slots are about that much too deep, just to make it easier to slide under the car. I don't use it on the Z, but I've used it on a lot of other cars and they work great.

Yeah I actually bought both, kept the 10071006 as 1006 1007 did not fit over my jack or into the recess like I thought it might. What I do is place it into the pinch weld then bring the jack to it, instead up trying to slide it under the car on the jack. They work great & mine is a Protech.

So basically I need to get the 1007 version correct? I really do not understand inches let alone the two different model numbers below. I merely would like to raise my car a little via the front pinch weld without scuffing them.

1006 - Side lift to fit inside 4 5/8" or larger
1007 - Side lift to fit Outside 2 7/8" to 3 1/4"

These pictures show it best. Sorry I read the wrong invoice apparently & it looks like I have the 1006 according to these pics.

As you can see the 1007 is designed to sit over the jack pad while the 1006 is made to sit on top of the jack pad. the size of your jack pad will determine which is best for your application. See pics below that show the bottom of the item
