Quick Jack for 2024 CT5-V BW

[FLYARMY]

I was going to buy a QJ and have decided against it. First, I don't even have a garage. I have bought a Harbor Freight 3ton hydraulic jack and 4 3ton jack stands. I did just recently use them to rotate my Jeep Grand Cherokee tires. It was a PITA because the Jeep was just high enough to not have the tires clear the ground when the jack was at full lift. I had to get some concrete pads to get the extra 2 inches. At least all of my other cars are much lower. I think a QJ would just sit on the side of my house and rust or leak. My next home will have a huge garage with a small house attached to it !

Definitely would need some sort of inside storage to put the QJs when not in use.

I use the 6000TLX with my 5BW. My other car is too small for the 6000ELX and I wanted a single jacking solution.

For the 5BW, I am using a different jacking point on the rear instead of the pinch welds. Definitely not a GM approved lift point but it seems strong enough. Had the car up a few times (including earlier today) and it works just fine.

What lift point are you using for the rear? Just curious as an alternative.
