Afternoon. Considering whether to purchase a QuickJack SLT 5000 for my 2013 60th anniversary 427 convertible. Lift points are separated along both side frames by about 38"; the company recommends orienting the long axis of the hydraulic jack along the long axis of the frame. Not sure it will fit and can't get much information from company. Seems like a great idea if it is workable. Many thanks. HAGD.

That is the exact setup I have. I have a 2013 427 and the 5000SLX. The 5000SLX matches up with the side lifting points just fine. The only issue I run in to is that it is a tight fit sliding the Quickjack under the side of the car if you have the carbon fiber side pieces. I can usually get it under there, but I've started driving up on a 2X6 with the front wheels to make it easier. Here is a picture of my car in the air on the 5000SLX.

I have the BL-5000SLX and it is perfect for my 2009. My car is on it almost every weekend for cleaning or any reason I can come up with. I still use the hockey pucks along with the short blocks that came with the unit. It might not be for everyone but it is perfect for me.

Thank you both. I am reassured and will
proceed with purchase.

I just got the BL-7000 on Tuesday and will put it to the test this weekend on my '08.

How much lift do you gain with the Quickjack?

I have the 5000 and it fits/works great. I also use it for my daughter's and wife's cars.
