I am looking at adding a set of Ranger QuickJacks to my garage. I am looking at the Bl-3500. It appears that they cost around 1k.

It looks like they would be easy to store when not in use. Thoughts?

Another option:

Neighbor has one, gets a good bit of use, no issues in a few years.

Though heavy, it is portable, or at least relocatable.

The downside is it doesn't give clear access to the underside, but for a 914 or 911 engine and tranny are exposed and can drop them out. For a front engine car dropping a tranny or exhaust could be difficult due to the obstructions.
