QuickJacks
I ha e been meaning to get a set since I saw them. No place to put a lift. Was able to find a nicely assembled set in Chicago. 5000XL which is great. Finally set them up to use them while prepping the car for trip to RMR. Love them. Tons of space under the car and this is just at the first stop. There’s more to go.

QuickJacks
Congrats Dom!! Nice find. I love them too!!! I spent too much on mine and saw them in COSTCO here in Japan. They sell them for less than $1,200 US which is less than QuickJack sells the 5000XL. I knew you would love it.

Re: QuickJacks
I went to a friends house Friday and helped him put his set of 5000 lb. Quick Jack's together. Best thing is he's going to bring them to my house, to store, after he uses them once.

Re: QuickJacks
Although no longer produced, I am very pleased with my Kwik-Lift. It is such a simple, maintenance-free design that is also portable. I don't even store it away; I just park on it. Mine has a 5k# capacity, and gets my vehicle raised about 21" plus vehicle suspension ground clearance. With the sliding jack tray, it's easy to pull wheels, suspension, etc. leaving the vehicle on the lift.
I occasionally find these for sale on Craigslist. American-made in Oklahoma. I previously had a shop building with plenty vertical clearance and a 4-post lift, but at my residence, I am limited by a garage with an 8' high ceiling, so a Kwik-Lift is my better option. I considered the MaxJax, but too unsure of the specs of my already existing garage slab (concrete mix, concrete thickness, reinforcing steel) to drill and set anchors.
