Any 1LE owners using quick jacks?

Any of my fellow 1LE brethren using these quick jacks?

I saw someone on youtube using one and i immediately fell in love. I have never heard of these things. I'm probably late to the scene, but glad i know they are an option now.

I actually just sold mine but will probably be getting another pair before too long. They're pretty awesome if, like me, you cant put a lift in your garage or just want something portable. Have the lift pads on the 1LE and they worked like a charm.

I have a set with the DC pump (so I can use it at the track without worrying about power). However I haven't used it on the Camaro yet because UPS lost the extensions. I bought the smaller SLX-5000 so I could use it more easily on the smaller cars too.

BTW use code "MONEY" for $100 off (put it in the 'Where did you hear about us?' field).

I've used mine several times so far. Oil change, diff fluid change. Just to make cleaning the wheels and calipers after washing the car a little easier.
Will be doing another oil change, swapping out the pads, and rotation in a couple weeks.

Had it about two months.

I measured and the quick jacks do not make it to the factory pinch weld points. So how are you using one?

And using flat top jack stands and a low profile jack it only takes but a few minutes to get it up on all 4s.

Love mine. Great option if you don’t have the room for a full size lift.

The extended ones (or standard with the extensions) should just barely fit based on others comments on it.. I can confirm once UPS finds my extensions or bendpak sends out new ones.

I used the extended pads with zl1addons lift pads, worked like a charm.

Yes, mines the extended model.
Have to put the ZL1addons bolt on lift pads as close together as possible.

Using a floor jack and stands is impossible in my small garage. The quick jack stores under the car, I just pull it out and lift the car. When done, just push it back under.

I plan on getting one of these for a holiday gift to myself. I have been using either my raceramps or a floor jack, and they are just too limiting. This thing looks great and the 21" lift height it's definitely more than I am getting from the raceramps.

This is the one I plan on getting; BL-5000EXT Car Lift

That field is a drop down with specific options, you can not enter your own word.
