QuickJack Question.

QuickJack Question.
For those of you who use quick jacks, so you guys use the pinch weld blocks or the blocks that came with it? Only reason I ask is, my car has 99 spec side skirts and the pinch weld pucks aren’t quite tall enough and it compresses the side skirts. So I guess seeing what everyone else was doing. Thanks!

I use the smaller height rubber blocks on the pinch welds. But my car does not have side skirts. You probably will need to use something taller if the Quickjack frame is contacting the side skirts, or position the quickjack more to the inside so that the frame is clear of the side skirts (if that is possible to do).

The jacking points on the pinch welds (the 4 reinforced areas) are the location that Mazda intended for use when raising the car. If you use the rubber blocks you will be fine from a safety perspective.

I feel like the slotted blocks kind defeat the purpose of the quick jacks, which is to quickly jack your car up. Crouching down to line up the blocks perfectly on the pinch welds (which are mushroomed anyway tbh) is the exact kind of procedures with jackstands I bought the damn things to avoid.
