Thanks for the pics, Phil. Definitely more room than I anticipated. Are they fairly easy to maneuver onto the hangers? Or have you even set that up yet?
I have not.
Bu this video starts with them being removed from the hangers.
Looks like they just hold them against the wall and the lift rests on the ground.
Question for you fellers. I've used Evaporust, and really like it a lot. But, I've only had the luck when I soak the parts. I am hoping for a "paint on" option of some sort. I want to derustify my SN95 spindles, and the rear calipers.
Anyone have a go to for this scenario?
I have used paper towel and terry cloth towels for things I could not dip in a bucket like chrome bumpers etc. Soak the rag in Evaporust, then wrap it tightly around the part, secure with a zip tie if needed. Drizzle a bit more on it for good measure and leave it overnight. YMMV but this has worked for me.
Finally got around to trying out the Quickjack.
And I give it 2 thumbs up!
The 2 pieces came all assembled other than having to put the quick disconnect fittings on the lines, pump, and cylinders.
Then you have to fill it with hydraulic fluid or trans fluid, and then bleed the air out.
I lifted the Mustang 1st; it has more room around it than my truck.
The lift needs about 15" of clearance because of the swing as it lifts.

↨On the 1st safety stop.
↨ All the way up and set down on the 2nd/ top safety stop.
I used the larger 3" rubber blocks; I can stack the shorter 2" ones on top of these for additional height.
And I can put the truck adaptors on and add the extensions to be able to get the truck up off the ground.
Damn, every time I see that car I want it more. The paint looks really good after the work you put into it. It's a slushbox though right? That'll put me off.
