Back in high school (mid-late 60s) in Michigan, a friend of mine drove his dad's Corvair most of the time. I don't know what year/model, but it must have been the first generation. He was driving down a residential street one day in our little village and the engine literally just fell out...

Just got this: "**Promo Pack program is not available at this time.**"

I came here researching the QuickJack. Stayed to enjoy all 47 pages of your incredibly detailed thread. Along the way, you became responsible for me buying a bunch of stuff that I convinced myself (and my wife) I really needed. Like you and your wife, my wife and I are avid track junkies...

I had that same issue installing the elbow fitting, on both sides. Fortunately, I had done quite a bit of research and found a post elsewhere from some guy who said that he ground off that corner piece! I realized what he was talking about as soon as I tried installing it. If you read the...

Another vote for the Traxion! I have a bad back and had a total knee replacement a couple of years ago. I use it when I'm swapping wheels or doing brake work. I also use it every time I wash our cars, rolling around the car to get to anything below the hood or trunk lid. I had rolling...

I got my QuickJack BL-5000SLX (110V) from Costco a week ago. I ordered it on a Sunday, went to the local O'Reilly's on Monday and picked up 3 qts of their name brand ATF which met the QuickJack specs for $3.99/qt. The QuickJack arrived on Tuesday at 10:00 AM and I had one of my cars up on it...

I ordered the Costco model I ordered the Costco model (BL-5000SLX, 110V) on Sunday, 2/10, it shipped on Monday, and arrived at 10:00 AM on Tuesday, 2/12. I had it set up and lifted my car that afternoon. My power unit looks exactly like the photo that bperrybap posted. It has a round...
