I have one that i use on my Viper. It was money well spent for me.I keep it on each side of the car and just slide it under and use the quick connect fittings for the hydraulics instead of running over them.It lifts the car high enough to do most work that is needed. It is also nice for waxing the car no more struggling to do the rocker panels or lower parts of the car.

I want to see video of the man doing work behind his back while lying face-down on the garage floor.

Why would you do that? You lay on a creeper supine (on your back), not prone (on your belly).

Interesting video. Did you noticed how far back the people were in after they added the extra weight? No body wanted to be near it. Still, 20,000 one on something rate for 5,000.

I've got a car I'm thinking about doing some track days with and I can see some benefit using this to swap tires and pads with. On the other hand, I can buy two more jacks (I have two already and multiple sets of jack stands as well) for a lot less money. Plus, even the 7,000lb model is too light for my truck.

Since you don't have the headroom for a post lift, which would be great, I'd say they look like it would be a good alternative, it is a PIA to get out a jack, lift one side, put in a stand, then do the other, this way all 4 are off the ground.

I would check with Quickjack. They are really handy to have. But take advice from the people who engineered it. IMO.

Started to do fluids today.
One way or another I need to up my equipment. I was not digging using 3 ton jack stands.
I have 1 pair of 6 ton stands currently in use under my Mustang. Going to have to swap those out.
Got the transfer case fluid done. I was not under the axles or differential. Started to do the rear diff but was needing to crank pretty good and was not comfortable.

It’ll be February before I am ready for a purchase of this size. So I’ll at least be picking up another set of 6 tons.
