Quickjack 25% off sale- one day 2/25

For those in the market, Quickjack is having a one day 25% off sale this week 2/25/25.
I don't know if Pelican is doing the same.

I was looking at used and here in Florida, folks want near new money for 4 year old lifts. This sale will allow me to get new!

If you have the room, you can get a 2-post lift for about the same price.

As much as I would like a 2 post, I just don't think I have the room.

I was getting tired of using a jack and jackstands so I bought a quickjack a yr ago. They're a bit heavy / cumbersome to move around but still easier than the conventional way of lifting a car. I don't have room for a lift. Seems I always need a car off the ground, whether it's my Cayman or my shark.

The QuickJack is preferable to jack stands, no doubt about it, but I'm holding out for a 2-post lift. I want the car high enough that I can stand up under it. I've had it with working overhead while lying on a creeper.

What size QuickJack best fits a 986? My other cars are a MINI Cooper and a Hyundai Santa Fe. I don't really need to lift the Hyundai. I figure whatever can lift a boxster can lift a MINI.

Mine is a 5000 TL and it handles the car with our a problem. It's got enough capacity to work well for your other cars as well.
