Bought one from Home Depot online during a Christmas sale. Great investment.

I wish I had one of these before I spent probably that much on jack stands, various floor jacks, ramps, etc. over the years.

Do any of you have wheels on them to make them more maneuverablewhile positioning the jack underneath the car? I have the 7000 and they are heavy and I am scared that I will scratch my floor that iis painted.

Just the non-caster wheels that came on the 5000. I view my garage floor surface as a consumable or I'd get mad all the time, since I work on a Jeep and a 1948 tractor (which marks its territory allwhere).

I wished i was less concern with it but that's one of the reason why I haven't really used it. I have seen other posters in Corvette forums make some brackets to put some caster wheels on them to make them easily maneuverable when placing them under the car. I wonder if the 5000 is easier to move around for placement underneath the vehicle.

A little different, but I've been looking at MaxJax.

A two post lift for low ceiling garages. Also portable.

It's portable in the sense that you can un-bolt it form the floor, but you can't pull it to a new location and just start using it. That may or may not be an issue.

The problem I had when I looked at two post lifts was that most wanted a rebar reinforced floor. There are solutions if you don't have one but they involved cutting into the floor and making one.

All that said... I still hope to set up a two post some day, but I think it'll be tied to a renovation of my outbuilding.

Yeah that 2 post costs twice as much and doesn't really seem all that portable. I want a 4 post for additional storage eventually but the quick jack is perfect for actually working on the car and then moving out of the way.
