Scissor Lift
Has anyone used one for their 6th Gen Camaro? I want to get one for doing oil changes, pull all four tires for general cleaning and when I need to polish the lower sides instead of laying on my side in the carport, so any helpful advise would be appreciated.

For oil changes, use Race Ramps. Safe for you and your car!

I have looked at the full race ramp setup, a little more pricey than a lift unless I can find one that doesn't run around 2k.

I have a mid rise scissor lift

I had a scissor lift. It was always in the way and not that practical for most jobs. I sold it and now have 4 identical aluminum floor jacks. That setup works very well. I wouldn't trade it for a QuickJack.

I was looking at the Restyler Magna Ramps, a little cheaper than the pit stop race ramps but really the same.

If you use them with the QuickJack put the ones in the front in the lift point furthest to the rear. Otherwise the QuickJack will not reach it, even the 7000EXT.

I just got the 7000SLX Quick Jack from Costco for $1,000.00.
Strange as it was advertised as 5000SLX, and was sold out within the first day of the ad. In fact it went on BO, and 2 days ago it was delivered, and I just noticed it was the 7000SLX. Still recovering from hip surgery, but once I'm good, the QJ will be installed QUICKLY! Anticipation is killing me every time I see the 3 boxes! This will make detailing the wheels so much easier, as well as fluid & bushing changes and flushing the brake fluid system...time to lube the creeper wheels!

Did you get the extensions? If you didn’t and don’t have the EXT model you won’t be able to lift your Camaro Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Pro
