QuickJack 7000

I recently bought a 911 and wanted something other than floorjacks to work on it. My garage ceiling is low, so a proper lift was not an option.

I was swapping my winter wheels for my summer and figured I would let the Quickjack take the G on the maiden voyage.

I bought the 7000TL bundle which came with the suv/truck lift adapters. Which are the adapters I used for the swap.

All went well, the hardest part was taking the jacks off the wall as they are pretty heavy. Other than that, it was much quicker and easier than using a floor jack.

In the below pics, the jacks are on the lowest setting. They can lift to 24.5” plus the height of the adaptors. If I tried to go that high the G would have smashed my garage door opener.

I use a harbor freight trolley jack with the crossbeam attachment. This can do only one side at a time, but for my frequency of use and storage, it's better for me. I would consider the QuickJack if I was doing regular under-carriage work.

That looks great. I can attest that the floor jack is a PITA, especially when you release and the car goes down very quickly, which is a little unsettling.

My release technique is VERY VERY SLOW (lol).

I plan to use my 7000 this morning to swap wheels/tires from a Bronco Raptor to a Raptor R. It's handy because you can take all 4 off at the same time. Makes changing them much faster if you are doing a 4 wheel change. I find positiioning the jacks to be a bit more time consuming than a standard floor jack though. I suppose it's trade off either way.
