Portable Lift?

-
Are the two tied together at all? Seems kinda scary to me that they look separate?
 
I would have to see it to see how stable it really is being two separate pieces.

Well, I don't know about "Quick" until maybe you've done it several times. These jacks are not tied together other than the hydraulics but are stable on level floor. They each have a safety bar you set in position in the case of failure.
In these pictures I have the both sets (short and tall) of rubber blocks stacked in each corner on top of 2 X 4 blocks. I needed the extra lift to clear the turned in exhaust from the fender well headers. I still need to make the risers to eliminate the thick rubber blocks and the 2 X 4s. Once I have those I would have no problem with R&R of a trans.
I posted some lift heights of my car on these in another thread for a "QuickLift" by mistake.

Looks like it only goes up about 2 feet. I'm getting this one:
Atlas® TD6MR 6,000 Lbs. Capacity Portable 110 Volt Scissor Lift | Greg Smith Equipment Sales, Inc.
Friend of ours has one in his shop and goes up 4.5 feet making it a bit more versatile. Just my 2 cents.

This style I have used in the past. When I was doing all restoration work we had one at the shop. Easy to move around and VERY good for body work. For a lot of mechanical work I didn't think it was the best because the lift tends to get in the way of the center of the vehicle... Being I do bodywork I really like this style.. easy access to the rockers :)
 
anything that jacks up the car please remember that in whatever position you wish to place the car in height, one needs to have a safety latch to protect you and the car while working. They are designed to lift, lock and then release the hydraulic pressure to ensure that in the loss of hydraulic pressure in the line, ram or pump...it will not collapse...
work safely please
