Bump

I'm not sure if you're getting my point. Let's say the standard QuickJack is 5' long and the EXT is 6' long. Make sure the Corvettes jack points aren't further than 5' apart or you'll need the EXT is what I'm saying. There's a better description on their website but you get the idea. I didn't...

Not completely set on colors or design, I'm just looking for a great deal. I'm thinking vented where the cars park, then solid where they're not...depends on if there's a price difference between the two styles. I'll take a quote when you can for 657 sq ft.

Make sure it's long enough to touch the lift points before buying...I had to get the EXT version to lift 4 out of 6 vehicles and it only touches half of the lift points on those 4 cars.

I'm lost as to why you'd wanna lower one side or even use jack stands at the same time? Granted I did have a car without suspension on the QuickJack and I wanted to use them on another vehicle since I wasn't going to finish the suspension-less one for a while but I expected it'd move forward...

They're hard when in hand but flexed nicely under 5500lbs when I did the brakes on my Harley Davidson F150...no cracking or anything though under load, so I'm guessing that's their design because some give under those kinds of loads should almost be expected. I noticed I wasn't perfectly...

I gotcha. Well if BMW is accurate in their claims, they should be close to a 50/50 weight distribution. The truck is definitely more nose heavy so I'll try flipping them around tomorrow just to see if it helps and isn't impossible to reach the battery posts since my pump is the 12v version...

On which vehicle, I've used it on three. Turn it around like 180° (I can't visualize why that'd matter) or 90° (which I've seen done in QuickJack YouTube videos only). If you're referring to the truck, the only reason why I went stacked pads in the rear is so that at least the truck itself was...

About 45 north of Seattle.

Long story short but I was torn between the QuickJack and MaxJax. Unfortunately MaxJax was on like a 4+ month backorder at the time, over $500 more (not including the highly recommended epoxy anchors), so I went with the QuickJack. I shopped around...eBay, Amazon, Alibaba...and going direct...

Loving mine for a multitude of reasons. I've got low ceilings and not that much depth as well, so now I don't have to do a left, right, front, rear song and dance to get the car up on all fours. I needed the 7000EXT for weight and length requirements (my 740iL and X5M sit on 2/3 of each...

Got my 7000EXT a few days ago, 12V setup with rubber blocks only for $1445 shipped. Even with the EXT I'm only sitting on about 2/3 of each jackpad on my BMW X5M....I've yet to try it on my 328, 740iL, Harley Davidson F150 or the GF's 535xiT to see how it fits on either of those vehicles...

The 2 car side of my garage is 99" at it's highest point while being 86.75" at its lowest due to a beam that runs from L to R for HVAC ducting...I LOVE my garage being finished off and heated since the PO's used it as living space, but it screws me on height. My 1 car garage is maybe a few...

Wow, complete change!! What you do think you're into that project roughly?

I've gotten quotes for plexiglass that'll consist of 18 panels, 17.5" x 43.5" x 1/4" @ $33 per panel, so it's coming out to around $600. I've called one place for a glass quote @ $25 per panel but they've yet to call me back with a quote since they said they'd give me a discount since I'm...
