21". Add another 4" or so for the lift blocks. Had to lower it to the lower setting when using a regular low-profile floor jack to get the diff out. And even then, had to put the jack on some 2x4s and put a hockey puck on the pad.

Never seen anything like that. Are they hydraulic or air?

QuickJack 5000. Hydraulic with air assist. Plugs into the wall. Really robust and damn near idiot-proof. You need to buy the slotted lift blocks as well. Otherwise the blocks that come with it will crumple the lift points.

But overall a great system. I'm a huge fan.

Love 'em. I got hooked on Conti's ever since I threw a set of snows on my old 350Z, and thrashed six inches of fresh powder at speed like it was hot dry asphalt. The last all-seasons lasted for 20k mi. The summers, 10k.

I'm trying a set of DWS06's on my new wheels. I'm curious to see how they stand up against the A/S +3. I hope I get more that 20k though. I've been getting 38k on the Michelins.

Gonna pull battery out the Z today & measure up box for a new one

JARblue · 01-26-2020, 08:37 AM

Google Quickjack. There are a couple of threads on this forum of people's reviews of it. I believe it's hydraulic and plugs into the wall.

Took the nose off the Z to clean the air filters. 2 years tucked in there and they where just slightly dusty on the back side, most of the filter still looked new.

Rusty · 01-26-2020, 06:23 PM

I clean mine every winter. They are never that dirty.

Cleaned the catch cans while doing other maintenance. This is what a pcv delete keeps out of the intake track. This is only the passenger side can so only half of it.
