Quick Jack owners?

[Dennis H]

Anyone use one. Looks like the solution for oil changes etc on the modern low slung Mopars.

We have one in our shop, not that brand we got ours from corn well tools, comes in handy does what it's supposed to do. I will say I can't get my SRT charger on there, id rip the bumper off, but I have it lowered, stock suspension it would probably fit.

Thanks. What I needed to know. The 06 Daytona and 09 Challenger don't want to go up the ramps, and I can't get the floor jack under. Do my own driveway/carport oil changes. Ramps slide or catch chin spoilers on both cars.

if you want to keep your ramps from sliding, tie a length of rope to the end, long enough to reach the rear tires. When you go to drive up, the rear tires on the rope will keep the ramp from sliding. Just don't spin your tires, but this works pretty well.

Ya the ramps are about worthless with these cars. I used to drive my charger up onto a couple 2x4's or even used some old rotors I had laying around and then I could slide the jack under the front and lift from the k frame

Is that center wishbone behind the motor? What's your jack point. I like the rope idea too.

Never thought of that

To give you an idea of how much I have it lowered, here's the clearance between the tire and wheel well, can barely fit my arm under the car lmao

Nice stance. Mine a highboy by comparison. The Daytona is lower.

I bit the bullet and bought a set of Raceramps about a year ago after a friend told me to try them. I thought they were a little overpriced at $220 but I went ahead and bought them. I have to say I'm impressed. I use them all the time and I seriously wouldn't want to be without them. I bought the 56" ramps and I have yet to work on a car that I can't drive on them. They have a removable ramp section to make then easier to work around and they absolutely do not slip on my concrete garage floor. They have several different sizes and configurations available. They work for me and are a lot cheaper than a lift. I recommend them to anybody that doesn't have the money or room for a lift.

Hmmm... this jack may be a solution on my not being able to work on my car because of the association rules. If this jack truely holds 3500 lbs (about the weight of the GTX) I may be able to use this in my garage and work on my car under the cover of darkness.....

Here's a couple pics of the lift or "quick jack" sure comes in handy sometimes

There's always jack dollies too. Individual wheel jacks/cradles. Jack each front with these, then there's clearance to get the floor jack under. With a set of 4, you can spin the car anywhere you want it.
