No all went together fine mate… the front 2 are tapped and just had a little paint overspray in them so nothing to worry about, and the rear 2 are just clearance holes
@PerformanceSound ... This thing is dope.Got my QuickJack (BL-5000SLX) in today from Home Depot that I had ordered during Black Friday for $1,080 (i was hoping i would find Costco sale for $1,000 this year but it didn't happen). Just waiting on the pinch-weld-blocks to lift my other car and Wall Mounts.
Using the standard [supplied] blocks work perfectly fine on the Supra\BMW jack points without the need of special adapters.
Easy to set-up; however, mine came with Liquid Thread Sealant (despite the QuickJack Owners Manual and YouTube video showing sealant tape). Do NOT, I repeat DO NOT use the included Liquid Thread Sealant, it leaked on me and made a mess of Transmission oil everywhere (for those that don't know, you need to purchase 3qts of Hydraulic or Transmission fluid separately). I purchased good ole' Thread Sealant Tape, had to re-bleed the entire system, and BAM, no more leaks.
**FYI -- I think the new 5000TL will be replacing (or has already replaced) the 5000SLX. It raises the car 3" higher while being roughly the same length and width! However, that wasn't on sale for Black Friday so I opted for the older version that Home Depot had; plus I personally don't feel that I need the extra 3"s.
This is the one I was telling you about. It has rubber stoppers to prevent the pinch welds from bending.
Man I need this in my life. I just spent several days dealing with jackstands and jacks. The Supra is a little tricky to jack up too since it is low and the jackpoints are fairly hard to get to.
Let us know if the paint falls off with the heat. Been thinking of doing that instead of paying a pro
First Mods! I rattle canned the braces to see if I liked them red. I might redo them better soon!
Nothing special needed and an easy DIY project. There's no heat impact. A cheap can of Krylon (whatever color you choose), some sand paper, and 3-4 lite coats does the trick. Just remember to scuff them up well before spraying and let them dry between coats. I don't recall exactly when I painted mine but at least 6 or 8 months later and still look like day 1. Edit - looked it up. It was last December when I did them (time flies I guess). One year later and still look like day 1!
Got the Rexpeed Key Fob Cover. It came with some stick on felt to protect the plastic on the fob from marring. I had to shave down a screw for the to side. It's a little on the bigger side now, but I like it.
The remotes are way too big already. It's really nice but I can't have something that big in my pocket. No room......?Got the Rexpeed Key Fob Cover.

Love my quickjack......Aha! Looks like someone's gonna be working on his car more often (as if you don't already)
Has it arrived yet?
Mokleen, I'm not sure if they have color matching as the carbon fiber finish matched well with the Tungston paint.
