We at QuickJack developed the 5000TLX simply because the 5000TL had a limiting lift point of 60”. That works for most vehicles, but then there are those vehicles out there whose manufacturer-recommended lift points are just an inch or two out of reach. While that may sound like an insignificant difference, professional shops and smart DIY’ers know never to take chances with an off-balance load.
The 5000TLX has a 66” lift point reach that’s long enough for virtually every consumer vehicle type out there (with the exception of certain electric vehicles, for which QuickJack offers the 6000ELX ). A lot of auto detailing and repair shops can’t fit a full-size car lift in their space, and there hasn’t been an industry response to meet these needs. QuickJack has heard the communities call and immediately went to work to perfect the TLX series. It is the world’s first professional-grade home car lift. That being said, commercial garages will get just as much use out of it.
There are a lot of ways to stow your QuickJack in a garage: you can lean them against a wall; stack them on top of each other; tuck them together under your vehicle, etc. The opportunities for easy and convenient. They’re practically endless. While some people prefer to hang their frames on the wall, up and out of the way. These convenient wall hangers are the best way to make that happen.
If you’d like to hang your portable car lift frames on the wall of your garage, QuickJack’s exclusive hangers will mount directly into a sturdy wall stud for safe, simple storage. It is recommended that the hangers are installed at the same height while also being high enough that the frames will rest on the floor. This will make it much easier to lift and hang the frames onto the hooks of the wall hangers.
Supporting cars on pinch-weld rails creates excessive pressure points which can end up gouging or tearing the standard rubber blocks. You could also end up inadvertently damaging delicate body rails on unibody vehicles. QuickJack’s urethane rubber pinch-weld blocks were engineered with a cross-cut slotted design, which allows you to position them lengthwise or crosswise. They’re the perfect body cradling tool to safely support rocker panels or sheet metal body rails, especially pinch-weld rails which have been degraded over time due to corrosion from grime and road salt.
You’ll be able to ensure a long lifespan for your lift blocks with QuickJack’s specially designed pinch-weld jack pads. You can place these taller-than-average blocks independently in the lift block trays. Not only that, but they can be stacked without placing a pinch-weld block on top of a small standard block. (The pinch-weld and tall standard blocks should not be stacked.) Ditch the wooden blocks, hockey pucks, and the towels which can slip or tear easily, resulting in vehicle damage, or worse, unstable lifting. The durable urethane rubber is impermeable to oil, grease, and gas. It will also be able to last for years and years of simple, maintenance-free lifting.
