Best 2 post lift for a home garage?

[Frank]

Looking at Rotary, Bendpak...

Any favorites? What about buying used? Thoughts?

Look into Atlas too. There is a place south of Dallas called Best Buy auto equipment. I get emails from them all the time about sales.

About 15 years back, I purchased mine from an Ebay seller out of Pine Bluff Arkansas...

Although I'm sure it's an import, it appears to be much heavier duty than the typical ones advertised by most vendors. It has worked well for me, I did reseal one cylinder last year due to a self inflicted wound due to my own stupidity.

Otherwise it's been pretty good.

Seems like I paid around $1800.00 with freight included. Installed it myself.

Phone number on the lift is: 1 800-436-1327

I pass by your house every now and then. Mind if I pop in to see it sometime? We met when I bought a bunch of R panel from you a few years ago.

you can get those cheap ones out of cleburne for around 1500 . i have one and it's been ok . real temperamental about balance but other than that it's been good .

Not to hijack the thread but does anyone stack cars on a 4 post with a 10'3 ceiling. Trying to do a fox on top and back in a gen 1 lightning to the cab.

I have been looking at Bendpak. Buddy just bought one from Derek Weaver. Think I may go with them and save some money. His is really nice and they are in Fort Worth

If you are only parking it, you'll need to add the height of both cars and add 4"as a minimum
.
If you plan to stand and work under them, the rule of thumb is 12' minimum.

I don't have all the measurements so I wanted to see if someone has some real world experience.
