Getting to the end of my build sheet for my 65R. Got a question ! Is anybody running air jacks on their coupes? If so what size are you using?. I don't see them anywhere on the option sheet. I just want to finalize this so a decision can be made as to whether have FF powdercoat the chassis or have it done at my shop if the air jack mounting has to be done by me. I had the Allstar system on my SLC and it was a breeze to service the car in the pits on in the shop. Thanks for your input. Steve.

It is not supported or offered by Factory Five so you would be on your own.

Here’s a Coupe R with air jacks.

Yep, I have airjacks on my Coupe-R. Fabricated and welded all the mounting rings and brackets myself. Not a quick and easy job by any means, unless you have a CNC plasma table.
I just finished plumbing my system and building my onboard tank system with quick-couplers, and tested the jacks for the first time 2 weeks ago. They seem to work fine. Rear lifts first and lowers last due to the chassis being front heavy (at least right now). Hopefully I can corner weight the car closer to 50/50 which will help some. It will probably never lift perfectly level, but that's not really a problem as you know. I will record a second lift at some point and put the video on YouTube to share here.
