Garage Lift System

maxtodorov · 06-04-2010, 12:14 PM

Hi,

Does anyone own a good garage lift system.

I am thinking about this one.

If any one does use something like this, do you have any issues / comments on lifting the car. My concern is on lifting points.... I do not want to bend any sheet metal......

Thanks!

Well I know modshack has a lift very similar to that one. I will be looking to get one eventually once I get my own house. That one looks pretty good but Im in for what other people think a good price point for these might be.

That Lift System looks good. I would like to get one as well. We need the experts in this forum to give us some advices. Thanks.

How about a 2 post lift if you have the garage space?

modshak and i use the same lift systems... here are pictures of both of ours installed

Tips for jacking up car?

this unit is fast and reliable... you never want to have any doubts about the quality of your lift when standing under a car... bend-pak has a great rep on quality and longevity

After looking online looks like the bend Pack is the best. Plus for me, they are located about 100 miles away. I may be able to pick it up there.

Also, thanks for the pics. I was wandering how you deal with ground clearance. I have to park in the same space, so the ramps would solve the issue for me.

Now I just need to come up with $$$$$ to get it. But my backyard remodel is eating up all my funds.

Aren't there any good scissor lifts which allow full access to the underside? From the pics it looks like the lift is in the way of the center portion of the underside.

there is a trade off when you go with scissors vs 4 pillar but it's not as bad as you think... when it lifts, the scissors come together and create more room to move around... I have no trouble getting to the transmission for example
