EV Sportline Jack Pad Puck

[moosehead]

Whoa Nelly. I just got one for my floor jack.

Didn’t mean to send folks diving for their manuals. Guess it’s better than doing so on the side of the road at night.

I put 4 of them in a small binocular case and use them for rotations and then keep in truck incase of emergency service.

Pricey piece of billet, but as a child of the muscle car era, it kinda does it for me.

Looks like it would come in handy getting a hefty Rivian up in the air.

Do these work with the supplied jack?

Don't know about instructions for tire rotation, but I have a 9000# hydraulic car lift that I'll be using.

Yeah, I guess I be putting my QuickJack 7000TL on Craigslist. Didn’t think I’d ever have a vehicle that weighed more than 7000#!

In the video on EV Sportsline website, they say that they use a 3 ton jack for the Rivian. Obviously, they are lifting 1 wheel at a time in the video but your 7k jack should still work in this application.

Yes.

The Quickjack is a portable vehicle lift, so it would be lifting the whole vehicle at one time.

I too have a Quickjack 7000, which I assumed would be ok for all of my vehicles. I really think the weight is ok based on the door stickers (mine is 8532 lb GVWR and 1543 payload, but was 1623 payload before I had the spare tire installed, so maybe just take the spare out to be safe). The bigger issue with the Quickjack and the R1T is the distance between the jack points. Even with the extensions or using the longest model, the R1Ts jack points are too far apart.

I have thought about fabbing up something for use with a jack and jackstands, but haven't gotten that far, or had the need for it yet.

Would be my luck to get it up on the locks, then not be able to raise it to release them in order to lower it.

The supplied jack includes a puck designed for it, so use the two together.

The billet pucks are for aftermarket floor jacks and lifts.

The QuickJack is designed to lift the entire vehicle -- not just a corner. a 7k# rating is not sufficient for use with the R1T. It is not safe for this application.

FWIW, just had the R1T weighed by certified scale for CO DMV, with 22's plus spare no occupants it came in at 7140 lbs.

The Quickjack with a 7,000 lb rating is over-engineered at least 2x.......there are numbers of videos with the 5000# version tested at 15,000#'s. Another poster said the spacing distance between jack points on the R1T is too far apart to use a QuickJack. I have it for my other vehicles, but didn't measure it myself, but I imagine he is correct.

Pretty much every product is "over-engineered" (some more than others) based on their published ratings, because of lawyers and liability concerns. It's a personal choice if you want to exceed that rating.

Personally, I don't.

There is a QuickJack TLX version with 66” between the lift points. I don’t have my truck right now so I can’t measure the distance, but I agree if someone else’s already checked then my current jack no worky anyway now on two counts. The individual 7000TL lifts are heavy AF to move already, TLX’s ain’t gona be any lighter, and if I was going to buy again I’d want a lift rated at least for the truck’s curb weight.

Completely agreed if my butt is getting underneath the vehicle. I'm pretty attached to myself and don't wanna get squished. If I'm just lifting it a few inches off the ground for tire rotations (and not getting under it), I'd be more okay with stress testing the equipment.
