Anybody using Quickjacks?

With Quick Jacks, how do you get under the middle of the car?
Never seen them in person but it looks like
you have to slide in from the front or back?

Yes, slide in from front or back only. I don’t have the space to lift the car from the side anymore and with the QJ motorcycle adapter it is awesome for service on the Harley too!!

Sometimes it is a horizontal bolt, another style is the one where the shaft has a saw-tooth mechanism. It seems these "lo-jacks" are just as safe as anything else when the weight is born by the locks. Of course the locks are designed and constructed to not fail within the specified load limits. They are, aren't they?

U can find u tube vids illustrating how the 5k lb QJs held over 12000# without flinching. And yes the locks actually make sure the stands don’t move but don’t forget u also have the hydraulic pressure itself which raised the car in the first place and that pressure is static unless released.

Yes they are and if you go on youtube you can watch them overload it up to 25,000 lbs if I remember correctly and it did not fail

Here are how I have mine mounted on the wall .
I kick myself for not putting cardboard under the entire lift as you can see how the bottoms have scratched from sliding them under vehicles on the cement driveway .

Kitty litter makes good ‘speedy dry’ when
you spill oil on the floor!
Timmy probably won’t want to use it after
you do this....
