I don’t have a horse in this race, but don’t want anyone to get hurt. The following is a link to correct jack points: www.corvetteblogger.com/2020/03/15/video-2020-c8-corvette-lift-and-jacking-locations/ I love the 2 cases of Budweiser Beer. I haven’t seen that since the 80’s.
Aloha and Thanks for your concern, however, those lifting points do not apply to this type of jack. Let me try to explain why. In both cases of the 2020 Corvettes that fell off the 4 Post Full Height Lifts, the moveable arms were not set properly. Trying to compare the 4 post Full Height Lifts to my Quick Jack is like comparing Apples to Oranges. The 4 post Full Height Lift should use the Chevrolet guidelines, but all lifts are not the same, and therefore, the same lifting points can not be applied to all lifts. Do you remember going to a gas station or a tire store? They had those lifts on the ground that you drove your car over and they lifted the vehicle up using the rocker panels, so they could remove the wheels. That is what a low height scissor lift is like. Aloha, Mark
I noticed in your first QuickJack/Corvette video you had the front ends QuickJacks both appearing to be pointing inward...the QuickJacks were not parallel to each other. Now on your 2nd & 3rd videos on the subject...based on your floor tape layout, the QuickJacks now appear to be parallel to each other. Am I seeing this wrong or are you just moving the rubber block around in the QuickJack trays to now get the jacks parallel?
Hello Aloha, I can't quite tell where you put the Front end quick jack block. There is a small cutout close to the front tires, and then inches away, another larger semi circular cutout. Was it the small cutout or the larger one?
Aloha, It is the larger cutout about 6"s behind the front wheels, sorry that is from memory, I thought I took a photo of it. Anyway, the jacks work just fine. I bought a Tire roller on Amazon so that when I take my wheels off, It will be much easier to clean them and the calipers. Hope this helped. Aloha, Mark
