I think I'm going to submit my order since back orders are filled on a first come first serve basis when they get back in stock. |
Getting ready to order this system...
Do the people with this system use the pinch - weld rubber blocks? |

Ordered in February and just got them last month. Even though my pinch welds have seen better days, I still like the idea of resting in tracks. I think I'll be able to get the smaller blocks in also, thereby getting more height. I haven't been able to use anything but the large blocks due to the shape (uneven) of my driveway. |
Ok, I will get those as well. Which model do you have?
Do the lifts now come with the dust caps for the lines when in storage or do we need to purchase those separately? |
I've got the 3500. Mine came with and tall block, dust caps, lines and lifts. The only thing I had to buy was hydraulic oil.

Hi, did you place the rubber blocks on the pinch weld or is there another location that these are placed on?

On the pinch weld.

With your BL-7000SLX, are you using just the pinch-weld blocks to lift your Z? Are you at stock height? Do you have to drive onto blocks of wood or spacers to give enough distance so the lift isn't lifting from almost completely lowered? I called Quick Jack and talked to their Customer Service department and they recommend having at least 2" or a bit more of clearance when fully lowered so that it can build enough pressure/momentum to lift the car. With my calculations, I will have 1" or less clearance when all the way lowered with the pinch/weld blocks. I am at stock height. And for lifting your Highlanders, do you use the SUV adapters? Thanks for any input you can offer. |

I just jack up my car and place three 2x10" stacked under each corners. I made a adaptor for the pinch weld with two hockey pucks. I stack one puck on top of the order and fasten the two pucks together with some dry wall screws. Then I cut a slit right in the middle of the top puck. The slit will fit right over the pinch weld. Then I slide the quick jack underneath and place slowly raise the jack with the rubber block with the hockey pucks on top to fit over the pinch weld. As for the highlanders I made some wood blocks and use the same hockey puck adaptors I made. Hope that helps. |
It does. Thank you very much!

Received my Quick Jack BL-7000SLX today.
Set up took about an hour and a half (was taking my time). I put about an inch and a quarter spacing under the pinch blocks to give clearance between the Quick Jack frames and the car's side skirts. Lifts it without any issues. It will also be able to lift our Armada and my Ram 1500 Sport Crew Cab. Perfect height for me and my creeper. Here is a link to a couple pictures. https://www.dropbox.com/sh/tzvbyzegu...J_8GnfZ8a?dl=0 This thing is awesome! :happydance: |
So, my Z is TTed and when it is stored for the winter, I am supposed to start it every couple weeks and let it run for 15-20 minutes to keep fluids circulated.
I have the Z up on the the Quick Jacks with the pinch blocks in the factory lift locations. My question is, is it safe to start the car and let it idle for the 15-20 minutes while it's up in the air on the Quick Jacks or should it be lowered everytime I need to start it to circulate the fluids? Thanks for any advice. |
Wouldn't see why it would be a problem. If it's already up and secure, then running shouldn't be an issue.
