As the late Mr. Jobs would say: "One more thing:"<br>
<br>
The QJ has some specific maintenance instructions. All the pivot
points need to be kept lubed--they recommend white lithium
grease--but there are no zerks, just holes in the tubes. I bought a
pistol grip grease gun and a few tubes of WL grease, plus a tapered
nozzle to inject the grease; it's messy and wasteful, but the grease
gets where it needs to be. Also, there is an air cylinder on each to
assist lowering; I noticed when I got my car up on the QJ and put
jack stands under the rear springs and front A-arms to relieve the
springs the QL would not completely lower from fully extended
without weight on them. I think the manual says they are not
designed to self-lower until they're just a few inches off the
ground. The air cylinders spec 50psi with the QJ lowered IIRC
(RTFM).<br>

<div>Any of you have a QuickJack car lift? I'd like your
