I have one as well, and really like it.
Important, do get the rubber blocks with the grooves for the pinch welds.

Why do you say that? I would assume you can just the supplied rubber blocks and lift on the jack points on the f80?

My Patagonia Nano Puff hoodie is my go-to everyday jacket, but i needed something warmer now that I'm traveling up to Maine and New Hampshire regularly. I picked up Patagonia's new Macro Puff hoodie that is two steps warmer in their jacket lineup. I considered something more stylish like a pea coat, but I am so drawn to the packability and technical features I went with another Patagonia jacket (this makes five). In black of course.

I don’t know about the F80, but the tracks for my 7000 were to short for the lift points on my 750Li, my 650i, and the X5 to reach both. Using the pinch weld rubber blocks mitigates the issue.

Will probably pick them up regardless. Certainly wouldnt hurt to have.

Get your right combination of the blocks and lifting will be a breeze on any vehicle. These units work well for the low sitting cars. I am very happy I got it. Remember, always guarantee your safety by placing jackstands strategically. The hydraulic pressure as well as the mechanical lock would have to fail simultaneously on one track in order for the catastrophe. Jackstands eliminate any doubt.

Just got my latest one to round out my stable in the TV room.

NEfan508 · 11-22-2019, 05:00 PM

Not exactly (bought) more like borrowed...
Lufthansa coffee cup, great on a rainy day with butter cookies

flight attendant: MR Miller can I clear off your table? we are preparing to land, ME: no thanks I'm still finishing 🤥

notes, I don't normally steal anything, often I return to a store if something was mistakenly not scanned/charged but this 4" coffee cup was more of a memory (great trip)

Wife calls me an airline whore, I have something from most trips I've taken (hundreds) favorite is Turkish airlines salt n pepper shakers (those disposable and given btw) they have little magnets on them not to move off the tray

Don't judge Me

I'm using mine to test a new revisions of two open-source weather station drivers that I developed and share online, so the 4B sits 99% idle and hasn't shown any overheating problems yet.....

Well...quickjacks were supposedly arriving Friday. Only received one box and fedex has no clue where the remaining 2 boxes are. Absolutely ridiculous to lose something so damn big.

Ha !
The geniuses did that to me too, and I was planning on using them for a job on the car. The second track showed up 3 days later. Funny how the boxes are clearly labeled ‘BOX 1 OF 3’ etc...

I don't know what's been going on lately but it seems like people's ability to use their brain is rapidly decreasing. Lol
