Anyone try the QuickJack?
For you track Junkies... anyone try this product? Looks like it can be useful on the track and also at home for some DIY projects.
Does anyone here have this product or has used it?

Yeah - I'd like to know too. I don't have a fancy garage with room for a lift (or a fancy wallet with room for enough money for a lift). I'd like to know what the best bang for the buck is on a less expensive, 8' ceiling garage lift.

Looks interesting,but it only supports 3500 lbs. That's not enough to invest in one. It could prove useful if you can use it in all your cars,like your SUV and such...
And what's the price BTW? I kept looking on their website and there's no mention about price.

That looks like it would be effective for most DIY projects. It looks a little higher than my JackPoints but not by much. Does anyone know it's height at full extension. I'm cursed with a an average/limited sized two car garage. I've been considering a MaxJack for a two post mobile system: http://www.maxjaxusa.com/ The scissor type lifts also look interesting but they seem to get in the way of projects which require access to the center of the car such as the transmission for a clutch job. Would be great to see input from others who have these types of systems.

Its interesting the video shows a jag f type. Iirc that car is > 3500lb.
Its too much trouble to haul to the track but might me useful in the garage.
So its basically a scissor jack but 2 separate pieces ?

I've been reading a little here and it looks like:
For the BL-3500
Price: $950-$1000
Capacity: 3500lbs
Ramp Weight: 45lbs each
Collapsed length: 5'
Collapsed height: 3"
Raised length: 46"
Raised height: 20" - pucks could add some inches to this depending on vehicle
Power: 110v AC or 12v DC (you pick which one at order time I think)
And it has a mechanical lock so that the car/load is not supported by the hydraulic ram when you are working on/under it.
Note: A 5000lb capacity version is in the works. I didn't see a price for that though.

I think this is a great solution for us guys that dont have room for a 4-post, 2-post or even a scissers lift. Its a new product and would like to hear from anyone that own or has used it.

I buy directly from Bendpak for our shops. Will get one as a sample. Very cool unit for a decent price. Be perfect for track days and diy maintenance.

Please let us know what you think of it. Bendpak makes a great product. If I had the room I would have a 4-post and a 2-post in my garage

Well color me stupid. Apparently we already buy it from them and just advertised it to our commercial customers(different folks running that area). Selling well at $1095. Comes with ac or dc power supply

So since I buy tools and equipment for a major auto parts retailer I would like to ask a question. Where do folks like heavy duty diy/track rats get their equipment? I can get anything I want but where does an average person go buy a 2/4 post lift or a long frame jack etc. Online? It's not like my commercial sales team is catering to anyone but garages and dealerships.
We can certainly sell to anyone and we carry every brand but it's not online it's really done through commercial sales guys direct to shops
