fireandisis posted:To amend my earlier reply, you can’t use the motor mount as a lift point with the QJ if you’re using the front jack points at the other end. It’s critical that the two jack units are parallel, so turn them around and go left for right per the manual (doesn’t matter so long as the lock bars are on the outside) so you can put one short jacking block under the front jackpoint, then at the back, take two of the thick blocks on each side, stand them on end one at the rear jack point, the other just behind and slightly inward (see attached pic, be careful not to catch the flange on the inner edge of the frame as it turns in towards the motor mount). That will allow the car to lift level, and with the second rear block aft of the jack point, I didn’t have any tipping issues. Safety jackstands can be put under the front end of the QJ and under the rear frame rails as far aft as possible.
Good luck, Mike
Your instructions were followed and all worked out well.
I did watch a Factory Quickjack Q & A Video in which they did state that once the jack was locked in position it was OK to detach the Hydraulic Hoses ( AS LONG AS YOU DEPRESSURIZE THE LINES ) by holding the Down Button for a time.
I depressed for 30 seconds and all worked out when the lines were disconnected.

Most excellent. I need to lift the mustang GT to put some red calipers on, removing the hoses will make work much easier. Beautiful car - looks like Grp IV flares, is that a Hall Superpantera?
Thanks,
I found an AD listing the car for Sale in California PI Motorsports dated 2004
It looked a bit different then but not sure if it was a Hall Car
