I finally got off my lazy butt and assembled the Quickjack 5000. It works perfectly. Lifts the car higher than I thought it would.

The diagonal bar outboard is the safety catch. It has a foot that catches slots on the bottom rail.
The arm on the side slides into a lug welded in the track when you let it down the arm locks the ramp in that position.

Not too bad to move they have small wheels on one end so you can roll them around. I think I will get some bike hooks and hang them up on the wall when not in use. I am also going to put the pump unit on the bottom of my tool cart. The hoses all have quick disconnects on them.
I like the potential that it brings where you can basically work anything under your car but I honestly would hate to have my family be the first lawsuit against the company if it collapsed !
They have some pretty good videos on You tube, where they stack 15,000 pounds of steel on on a 5000 pound lift and it picks it up. They also loaded one up and torched off the shafts on the rams to show that the safety will hold.
I have watched those video's also when I was looking into these a while back, I still want to get one and noticed they are on sale right now at Home Depot for $1,099 plus tax but free shipping.
