Super exciting! Did you buy the pinch weld blocks? You absolutely need them. I went without them for the first few months and the sides of my pinch welds bent out like the Greek letter psi.

Did you get the 12v option to hook up the power to your battery? Youd be able to use it on the track then...

AC unit and electrical in the trailer.

I did it because of convenience, between oil and tire changes or tire rotations the car is up in the air a lot.

I'm just wondering how high it can get... I'm not sure it will be enough to roll out the transmission sitting on the transmission jack from under the car. In which case, it's probably not worth it to me.

I can get the car up on four jack stands without much effort now. The minimal hassle saved with a QJ just doesn't seem worth a $1300+ investment. Especially when I consider that I can get a 2 post lift for an 8' tall garage for $1700.

I got mine for $999 on line from Costco! It is much safer than Jack stands too. Not sure about the height of the lift yet. You are young and don't have deal with bad knees and hips lol.
