Anyone know if QuickJack car lifts or anything similar are safe? I want to get them to rotate tires and do other things, but my wife think they are dangerous looking.

I have a Quick Jack that I've used for 3 years lifting our 2020 Corvette. It's VERY safe and stable. HOWEVER, the QJ lift I have is rated for 5000 pounds and that's getting very close to the weight of our I5. I'm sure there is a safety factor built in so it would be OK, but I would still put a set of jack stands under it, If I were to get under it in any fashion. Rotating tires would not be an issue for me.

I've not tried lifting it yet. First of all, I would need another set of 4 jacking pucks with the Saw cut center, as our Corvette uses flat round pucks. I will likely get a set of new pucks to save driving to the dealer just for tire rotation.

Here's our Vette up on the lift. Raises it 21". The newer lifts are 24" height ...... mine has a 66" front to back lift distance max. I need to go measure the I5 to see if the lifting areas are in that distance.

Williaty........ do you have a link to WHAT pucks you are using? If not, what is the width, and depth of the slot needed on the puck to get proper fit? I would not want to guess and get a set that are not deep enough, or not wide enough to fit over the pinch weld location.

Thanks ! I was just looking at those exact same ones, but didn't know if the width of the slot, and depth of the slot was proper for this I5..... I assume, it is a good fit ???
