Quickjack QJ-5175650 6000ELX 6,000 Lb. Super-Long Car Lift
The 6,000-lb. capacity 6000ELX is a super-long portable car lift with one of the widest lift point spreads in the industry. For drivers of some electric cars or vehicles with exceptionally long wheelbases, these frames are the only way to go. Ideal for detailing and wheel service on EVs.
The ELX has the distinction of being our only car lift series to feature a single model. Its frames are super-long, even longer than our extended-length TLX series. This frame length is ideal for extremely long wheelbases, so this model fits virtually all contemporary EV cars, including top-end, luxury electric vehicles with lift points that run to the extreme edges of the vehicle frame.
As luxury EV vehicles become more commonplace, we know auto shops and garages are going to need a portable/compact lift to work on these cars. Not every shop has a four-post or two-post, and smaller shops, such as many privately owned auto detailing shops, might not be able to fit one in their space. That’s why they get scissor lifts and low or mid-rise lifts. Unfortunately, super-long-wheelbase vehicles can’t be raised by these lifts. That’s what makes the BL-6000ELX so unique. It also has a robust weight capacity to handle electric sedans, which tend to be heavier than comparably sized gas-powered cars. With a lift point spread that’s longer than the frame length of a TL model, we sincerely doubt you’ll find a vehicle that’s 6,000 lbs. or under with a wheelbase too long for this lift (outside of semi-trucks, commercial buses/mass transit vehicles, etc.).
ELX Car Lift Design
The 6000ELX portable car lift is a full 17″ longer than the TL model and about 10″ longer than the TLX model (comparison below). While the frames are longer and a little heavier than other models, they’re still convenient to roll around your garage or shop, thanks to the durable urethane construction of the wheels.
- ELX minimum lift point spread: 47.5″
- ELX maximum lift point spread: 76″
- ELX overall frame length: 86″
Features
- Automatic safety locks: The 6,000-lb. capacity 6000ELX features the same automatic mechanical locks as our TL and TLX models. Your QuickJack is safe to lift anything (under the weight limit) that reaches the lift points.
- Extended lift point spread: With a lift point range of 47.5″ – 76″, there isn’t much the ELX can’t handle. Its minimum range covers most sports cars, sedans, light-duty trucks, etc. Its maximum range makes it one of the only—if not the only—car lift that can lift vehicles with the longest wheelbases on the consumer market.
- One-touch button control: The single touch of a button lifts the electric-hydraulic frames, getting your vehicle over 21″ in the air in about 30 seconds. One more push safely lowers vehicles onto the mechanical locks. Leave your precious cargo raised for minutes, hours, days, weeks or even months—however long it takes to finish your work.
- Built-in hydraulic flow divider: The flow divider, built right into the power unit, ensures the frames lift evenly at all times. This is necessary because there is no crossbar(s) to act as a “brace” or mechanical leveler. Since the freedom of our open-center design is one of QuickJack’s most attractive features—and virtually no one else offers it—the promise of a level rise and descent is the most important one we can make.
