QUICKJACK BL-5000SLX

[zulhijj]

I know lots of folks post about how much they like their quickjack. I've been waiting for a sale and finally see they are a decent price at Home Depot at 25% off for those interested:

These used to go for $899, but this is the lowest price I've seen since the pandemic began. Worth it.

Wow. $899. Makes me wonder if I should wait longer. ?

If anyone is interested in the newer models they are also on sale direct from QuickJack. While not as good a deal as from Home Depot it's an option if someone wants the newer model with the 3 inches of additional lift.

I have the 5000SLX I ordered from Home Depot black friday. Best thing I ever purchased!! Just a warning, if you get liquid thread sealer instead of the tape one, do NOT use it. It leaked everywhere for me using the included liquid sealer. I used thread sealing tape (had some laying around the house) and rebled the system, no more leaks.

*Also the included rubber blocks works perfectly with the Supra's lift points. No need for the BMW/Supra special adapters.

**The owners manual and even QuickJack official YouTube videos shows them using tape thread sealer. Not sure why they changed it.

Same thing happened with me. I used the liquid stuff as instructed and it created a mess. Luckily I had some thread sealing tape laying around.

Those with quickjacks, for a stock height supra do you need to drive up onto ramps to allow enough height for the jacks to lift? I was considering ordering but saw all the reviews where if the jacks cannot get to a certain height before making contact it will be unable to lift. Bendpak’s official recommendation: lift the car so the jacks have the clearance to lift properly.

Not at all
With my HKS Hipermax set kind of low I had to buy the 1.5" blocks for the front, but the included 2" blocks still work fine in the rear. At stock height the 2" blocks will work all the way around. I've never run into an issue with them having to get to a certain height before making contact, it sounds to me like the people complaining about that might not have bled the system properly.

I have the 5000TL and its great for the supra. Did the DP swap last weekend and will be doing the Verus break cooling kit in the next could days.

It really is super convenient and great to have. Also used on the Focus for an oil change and should work on the RDX just fine as well.

I like the extra safety with the jackstand. ??

My friend/ co-worker, got killed because of no jackstands!

From using a Quick Jack or from a normal floor jack without stands?

Sorry to hear about your friend btw.

Using jackstands only, no backups,
ALWAYS USE A BACKUP!
