Move your QuickJacks around your garage smoothly—without wheels, noise, or damage.

I needed a way to stop my QuickJacks from getting all scratched up on my concrete driveway, plus make them easier to move around and position under the car while they were up. 

I looked at some other sellers offering horridly expensive, bulky and in some cases, fragile caster kits, and wrote them off. I also tried the transfer bearing approach, with both steel and nylon balls, but they really only work on smooth surfaces, and will jam up if they run into anything at all, plus as soon as you start to lift the jacks, they're no longer on the ground and you're back to not having them. 

At first glance, you might look at Gliderz and say 'that's a stupid idea'. I suspected that it might be as well, but decided to make some anyway to see if they would work. I was shocked at how well they did work. The prototypes have been on there for several years, and still work great. They easily handle the weight of a fully loaded TL8000.

Gliderz stay in contact with the ground at all times, meaning they allow you to easily reposition your QuickJacks even when they're raised (but not under load yet).

No moving parts. No failure points. No rust. No more dragging your QuickJacks around your garage, leaving scratches on your floors and your QuickJacks.

Key Benefits:

  • Virtually instant installation with the included 3M Adhesive Pads. 
  • No bolts, screws, nuts or zip ties are required.
  • No modifications are required to your QuickJacks.
  • Works whether lowered or raised.
  • Protects the floor and your QuickJacks.
  • Easy, smooth, controlled movement.
  • Available with Teflon or Hard Pads, depending on the surface.
  • Won't break if you accidentally drop your QuickJack. (Your toes might not be so lucky, though...)
  • Less than 1/2 the price of caster solutions - without the bulk or fragility.
  • Quieter than the transfer bearing approach, with no damage to your floor.
  • Each Gliderz Pad is rated for 10,000 lbs. 4 pads/jack = 20 tons per jack.

Currently available for 7000 & 8000 series QuickJacks.

Please select Teflon Pads for smooth surfaces or Hard Pads for rough surfaces.

Hard Pads even work on sharp gravel embedded in concrete (which is why we invented them in the first place). You can see the [somewhat beat up] prototypes in the Stack-a-Jack pics and videos.

Pads are replaceable if you somehow manage to chew them up. You can purchase replacement pads from us, or print your own [hard pads], using files that we provide free of charge with your purchase. You can purchase replacement teflon pads from us, or you can find similar ones on Amazon.

Gliderz can be removed from your QuickJacks if necessary (with some difficulty - that 3M stuff is nasty...)
