Anyone able to confirm if there is enough clearance on a lowered car (preferably H&R springs) while using lift pucks?

As in hockey pucks? No. I'm able to use the short blocks. In my other cars, I add on pucks

Also, will the 7000 version work as its a great deal at Costco as mentioned above.
i just searched Costco website...didn’t find it. Is it still available from them?

It looks like the Canadian site doesn’t allow shipping to the US. Has anyone confirmed this?

Do not buy the extended length version.... without ramps on the front wheels and the SUV kit you will not be able to remove the wheels... I know because a forum member had posted that it would work on the 997... { and I bought one based on his post.)....but later realized that it wouldn’t work and did not update his post!

I have the same exact lift but be very careful as mine broke while lifting my car and almost did major damage. Be mindful to keep the hydraulic fluid full at all times and bleed the system. But even doing that will not guarantee one of the couplers will not be defective (I had 1 defective coupler) and really was scary and extremely messy to clean up.

each time you use the lift.. you must loosen the breather valve (little black screw with the hole in the center on top of your reservoir) so that it can breath.. chances are that you didn't do that causing extreme pressure back into your hoses and well.. something else had to fail.
