Another Car Lift idea

I saw this lifting idea at Carlisle. It is called QuickJack. I have no need for it as I have a full size two post lift, but I like this design a little bit better then the one above.
The web site is here: https://www.quickjack.com/

This seemed to be a pretty good review on the jack: http://oppositelock.kinja.com/tool-review-the-quickjack-is-it-as-good-as-a-real-li-1796401355

Note: I have no connection with either brand, and I have not used either - just offering folks another similar alternative for consideration.

I'm too old to be lying under a car.

...........It is called QuickJack.......

Lol, did they say "Quick"? Not sure about "quick", especially with FW's, but it works....

How are they for side to side motion? stable?

Looks kinda sketchy for a big car like our b bodies

Mine's a 5K lift, 110V, and works well in a low ceiling garage. A little heavy but it is "portable".
Even with the "skimpy" stacked rubber blocks it feels fine. One day I'll make a solid riser set to use just the shorter rubber block. I wouldn't have a problem pulling a trans under it. There is nothing between the two sides to interfere with jacks or roller carts.
A longer version (which a "B" would need IMO), 7K lift is available now I guess.

Read a lot of reviews and they seem to center on leaking connections and pump failure.

Just my opinion but isn't that no better than jackstands other than being faster? I don't want to crawl around anymore lol.

You could not pay me enough to work under that contraption.

Cheap Chinese junk, improper installation or a complete lack of attention to what they were doing would likely cover all of the above.

I would recommend anybody thinking about buying a lift of any type to do your homework, I've seen video's of cheap lifts buckling before ever reaching their capacity.

Yeah, it's amazing what a US company will sell and support these days, eh!
