Love the quickjack! Hope it comes in handy!
Thank you again!!!!
Feel free to send one to Portugal as well for my F80 :D hehe
Every Garage needs a set of quick jacks, I have had my set for almost 3 years now and love them.
Do you have compressed air? I heard you need to have compressed air for the initial setup but do you need air after the initial setup?
Any lift is such a time saver, I got one too 2 years ago. Slightly different type but still.....Best thing I ever bought!
I can understand!
Love mine. Just keep in mind that you HAVE to keep the lines clear of debris and it does require minor maintenance. Had to work with Quickjack to order updated filters for my the pump. Fortunately, the repairs and maintenance are fairly simple, just hope the parts are available (had to wait months for the filter due to production/covid)
Good tip. I’ve been good with keeping the connectors clean
Perfect timing, Costco has the quickjack on sale right now, $200 off. I just ordered mine today.
Nice! You’ll be happy
Just ordered mine 30 min ago! Can't wait!!
I ordered a quickjack 7000TL for my MKV Supra. Can't wait to do my own maintenance here at my house with this. I swap tires often with my track setup so this will save me alot of time and money in long run. Cheers
That’s the way to do it. Congrats !!!
Absolutely love mine. Been using it a ton for a year or more and there’s no going back
Good to hear!!
Great tools just beg to be used, which makes the user a more proficient mechanic, etc.
Wow Tommy that's an awesome gift..wish my friend would get me a quick jack..hope they reading this. Hahaha.
You gotta make some new friends!! :)
This seems to make the job 99.9% quicker and easier, I'm definitely getting one today!
It’s an amazing tool
I absolutely love my quickjack! Makes working on the M4 super easy! Love from another M channel build!
That garages looks amazing...enjoy!!!
Thanks !!
About time.... ;-) My QuickJack is one of the best tools I have purchased. Oh, and regarding the “scissor” effect of the lift getting your car too close to the garage door, just swap the rails to the opposite side so the scissor motion is in the opposite direction.... Have fun wrenching now...!!
Nice! And yes I can switch direct for sure!
I contemplated getting the Quick Jack, but for the money a Twin Busch Scissor Lift is the better investment.
By the way if anyone reads my comment in 2023, you don't need to convert your BMW lifting pads to be flat or anything. The BMW lifting blocks are already designed to have a flat surface press on them. Yes there is a hole but that's just the way it is and how your car is lifted at the dealer for example. No need for an adapter.
Thanks for the tip!
GREAT VIDEO. I've been seeing these and been putting off buying one. Im jealous you that you got it for free. LOL I might have to spring for one now. Good luck with it!!
Do it!! It will be a life saver
Got mine Monday! Finished up the install lastnight. Went with the 5000ext due to long wheel base of the Chargers. Gonna lift the car later after the pet store. Lol super excited. Wanted one for several yrs!!!!
Ps that garage is amazing! Wish mine was this wide. Mine is considered 1 and 1/2 car.
It’s a must for any car enthusiast
@@TommyLGarage dude this thing is awesome. Makes getting the car up so easy. The hardest part is moving those heavy ass things. But I just bought these for it www.etsy.com/listing/910296830/complete-kit-bracketcaster-wheel-kit
Just recently I was looking at this product for home use. I think it would work great for most maintenance. The draw backs that I see is the price, about $1000, storage of the unit and time to setup and knock down. That $1000 would pay for many small maintenance jobs like oil changes and tire changes.
It’s worth the investment for sure
i believe you had the jacks backwards
He sure did.
I wish my yas looked like that, color correction always gives me the blues!
Just put an order in for a pair of these mud flaps. After adding wheel spacers this seems like a must! Can’t wait to install them! Nice lift btw. I’d like to have one of these in the future!
I’ll get started on them!!!
I need to get some of those flaps before I put spacers on my G80
Email me! I’ll send you the detail.

Great video man, thanks!
I have a C6 vette for the track but I love those BMWs!
Also have the QJs.
Thanks for watching. QJ is indeed amazing
thanks for the video, beautiful garage btw looks like a ton of space.
It is! THanks!
I always want this quick jack but I still live in a condo so have to use regular jack for the time being. Hope I will get a house in the near future and have my own garage.
It’s such a game changer
I love mine. Definitely a good investment
I use the xhamster brand quick-jack.
Hahah touché
I need that so bad. Great review bro...I love your car with the black rims just my taste
Thanks! Black wheels are indeed nice :)
Agree. Don't know why I waited so long to buy them. My son does a lot of work on our cars and manually jacking one side/putting on a stand was not only time consuming, I was always concerned about the safety factor. Now with the quick jacks, I've even changed the snows/summers on my F82 myself rather than waiting for him to do it. Only complaint I have is I haven't come up with a good solution for sliding them in/out without scratching up the epoxy coating on the garage floor. Curious if a plastic floor system could handle the QJ sliding on them. Anyway, great video.
Hey I know this is an old comment but just in case you still have your QJ and haven't figured out an easier way for sliding them in/out to/from the vehicle, there's videos on RUclips of guys installing a set of casters on the bottom of each QJ. I've seen a video of a guy installing typical caster wheels and another guy bought some ball bearing caster wheels. Both guys simply 3M taped them on the bottom of each QJ and ziptied them. You would think the car would roll around after it's been lifted off of the ground but if you mount the casters in the right spot, they'll raise up off of the ground too. It's pretty genius actually.
Love the color of your BMW.
Thanks !!
Your editing skit made me chuckle
haha thanks!
I just got mine, wifey bought it for me, early bday present ! btw how did you seal the fittings, ? teflon tape?
Congrats! So Teflon tape only where they say it should go. No Teflon needed on quick connections
New subscriber here. really enjoying your videos bro. keep it up.
Nice garage!
Thanks!!!
Cool but backward, off by 180 degrees. Best to lift over the base frame rather than cantilever the heavier front end.
I never even knew about this lol. Going on my list!
It’s been around for years , be careful they come in different lengths and weight capacities when ordering one
@@Antimatter. thanks!
Love the videos tommy! Keep up the great content inspiring others to work on their own cars. What size stud kit do you run? I was thinking of getting the 60mm just so it does not stick out so much if i dont want to run spacers
I bought a car 2 years ago (1988 Honda), and one of the tires were accidentally installed backwards... after about 500 miles of driving (despite the wheel vibrating a lot on the highway!!) the tire finally exploded.. the car has never been the same. :(
Best investment if you work in your car like me and you I have it on love it and feel super safe to get under the car not so much with jack stands enjoy it
I’ll still use secondary stands
@@TommyLGarage you dont need to this quick jack are solid I used on my ram pickup with the extension but whatever you need to do to feel safe
I 'need' to get a set of these. What exactly did you do to modify the factory fitted jack location blocks. Is it necessary to modify them, anyway? I have 2 location inserts that I use with the jacks I have, so couldbuy 2 more of those, but they are a bit of a pain to fit. Love your videos and enthusiasm for your car.
Great video, thanks for sharing. Do you think the QJ will allow me enough room to use a floor trans jack to remove a transmission from my 2007 BMW 335? (Manual trans) do you think there’s enough clearance using the QJ to remove it from under the car? My car sits about the same as yours. Thanks!
Yes. Plenty of clearance. you will need to do it on your back, but totally doable.
Great! mine arrives tomorrow!
Tommy did you ever try this with your F90 before you went with the lift?
Yes. F90 is too long for it
Lucky you.
I bought the 7000TL when it first came out and I'd call it ok if you're lucky and get one without a defective air cylinder. If you do get one of those you're screwed - the company will 100% not stand behind their product. They'll claim the air-assist down isn't "necessary to the function of the lift". Really? So if one side has air assist down and the other doesn't, and they drop unevenly, that's safe? And then when the vehicle drops to the ground and one side of the lift goes straight to the full down position while the other... doesn't. You need to wait... and wait... and wait for it to drop with no weight on it. Quickjack will claim this "is normal operation" and that "it will get better over time". If you invest a massive amount of time trying to get them to stand behind their product they will, eventually, after burning through every once of customer goodwill, send out a new cylinder. Yay! Until you get the replacement and the freakin' air side is literally capped off. Like intentionally made unusable. That's not a fix guys. Then they'll claim that the engineers decided the down-assist wasn't necessary and that they've changed the design on future models. But I didn't buy a future model with less functionality. I bought the current model with exactly the functionality I wanted, was promised, and paid for. Whatever. Too much time wasted on it already - I've written off the entire company as another skanky marketing hack with no integrity. I still have it in my shop, but the company worked very hard to make me regret my purchase and it low-key pisses me off every time I look at it.
Great video, cool garage, where did you get that gray or black mats underneath your car.
I just wish I had the garage!
One day!
If you flip them around the lateral movement will be away from the garage door
Hi TLG,
I love those, they look like a brilliant piece of kit.
Game changer !!!
I was wondering - Could you turn the quick jacks around?
So it moves the car forwards as it jacks
It up? Or is it not possible?
Yes you can! As long as the safety is on the outside
Thanks for the clarity, hopefully one day I can get myself a set
Another great video Tommy!!! Always enjoy your videos.
YOU HAVE THE LIFT POINTING THE WRONG WAY! It is suppose to travel forward not backwards.
Gotcha!!
can these fail? Not sure if you can add in any extra security
These are solid. I usually add stands under to be safe
I want one
Tommy, can you please give us your thoughts on possibly using that in an apartment complex setting? Like, would you recommend someone to use that in a parking lot outside their apartment?
You'd need a power source...thats it
@@TommyLGarage excellent, thank you, sir!
Interesting idea with the ceramic tile floor, did you do that yourself? I hate our dirty stained concrete and have been looking to redo it. Don't want those cheap speckled gray floors.
I bought the house like that. I love it. I just wish it was a different color
Will this model quickjack also work for f82 m4?
Hey Tommy
How’s it going man, awesome content as always brother.
Where did you get the mud flaps from, I need some for my M440i.
I custom make them. Email me at got6speed @ gmail . Com
@@TommyLGarage Will do.
Tommy, is that a rubber pad under the Quickjack.
they cost around a grand, you can't go under the side of the ca and the safety bar can be knock off potentially.
I always use stands as backup
Don’t forget to tell the viewers it is heavy as f***
It’s not that heavy
@@TommyLGarage the package shows a guy walking with two simultaneously! That’s impossible! I have one. Of you wanna change your wheels, you wont take them, to much Work.
Hey Tommy, does the 5000SLX also work with your E39 or is it too short?
I have a question I just bought a 2017 bmw m3 competition and I was watching some of your older videos and I saw that your. A/C controller screen is white and I was wondering did you change that or did it come with it? Cause mines red
I was waiting for the back of his car to hit the garage lol
Missed it by an inch !
Hey Tommy. So do you need to use the blocks if you already put the car adapter pucks. Or do you still need to put the blocks under the pucks
I still use blocks...quick jack has deep recesses
Was this a Quick jack video or a BMW video..........also you know you could just put the quick jack so it raises to the front right?
It was a garage video :)
I need one of this thx TLG
Do it !!
now you have to put a water drain in your garage. I been thinking about it
Now that’s a good idea!!
Can you measure me tube dimension and lenght of the hydraulic cylinder? :D
I just replaced my headlights and cant seem to allign the damn thing with the fender. If I push it too high there becomes a gap with the bumper, if I keep it low then theres a gap with the fender. Any idea what to do about it
Just have to do trial and error. It’s tough
Hey Tomi, have you seen the trending new gts M4 style Tailights for the F30 chassis!! I would love to see a review by you!🙏🏼
I don’t like them. Not oem enough for me
@@TommyLGarage yes that’s a good point I could agree
How much does it move the vehicle back while lifting?
About 8 inches
Do you think its nice to use for working underneath the car?
Yes. But I’d still use secondary backups
5/5
i thought you said you were selling this car.... do you have any more mudflaps for my f30?
Yea! Email me at got6speed @ gmail
Where can i get those mats that you use under the quickjacks?
Just home depot mats. Nothing too fancy.
Why not pull the car forward?
I like to live dangerously:)
Apologies.....it is a M3 ....guess your winters are on 18”
Yes 18
Not sure I trust that to be under the car
Do you have a video link for the jack point conversion that you mentioned around the 2:35 mark in the video? I've searched you videos. I'm not having any luck finding this source. Thank you. Keep up the great work!
Sure. Here!! ruclips.net/video/MA0qma_EFP0/видео.html
You're using something that could kill you. NEVER rely solely on someones else's instructions for that kind of thing.
Read the manual yourself also and question anything that doesn't make sense. You may in fact reveal an error/weakness in your friends method/interpretation.
Supposing your friend/family member/pet gets under there and it fails because you didn't put in the effort.
Fair point !
🔥🔥
Not confident in a guy who cant even get the wheel direction correct
Yup he’s a dud
You have your QuickJacks setup backwards , The left one should be on the right side and the right should be on the left side of the car with the rams pushing the jack up towards the front of the car....very common mistake.
Ahh good Point. Thank you!!
will this model of quick jack work for F82 M4?
Yes it will!
