I can't thank them enough, really. But they did forget to tell me to be careful and go very slowly over steep speed bumps (slightly touched the lift pad once)....
Hey go slowly over bumps you may scrape also if you hit the right pedal to the floor on cold tire or in the rain you car will do magic tricks... lol I kid i kid im still excited for you and your car. i remember your first post glad the excitement hasnt worn off...

The quick jacks are worth their weight in Gold if you don't have the ability to have a two or four post lift. They come with rubber blocks you use to place between the quick Jack and the jacking points on the car. It does not damage the side skirts.

I recommend you go on Amazon and buy yourself four magnetic Jack point pads that you would attach with magnets to the pinch welds on the car. The rubber blocks that come with the quick Jack will make contact with those as the car good up. The quick jack never makes contact with the car.

It’s not just an extra parking space.
Did that Jack that goes up and down the center of your four post lift come with it?

People don't realize you can also use a set of quick jacks while the car is on the four post lift to get all four wheels off the ground simultaneously.

That's is the setup plan on when I get my home garage set. I already have the quick jacks, just need the four post lift.

The sliding Jack is an option that you can get when you buy a new lift.

Gives you two parking spaces.
For the most part I agree but I use mine to do lots of projects and it comes with a jack tray that I have used many times. I usually either jack the front or the back wheels at the same time. its a little harder to get all 4 in the air at one time.

OMG, Is that the old 914? My neighbors across the street had one when I was growing up in California back in like 74 I'm guessing.
