that thing is beast!

[namsayin]

damn! how much does that cost?

[87e30]

That's awesome!

IS that an awkward height to work at though? Can't lay down... can't stand up?

Lifts to 72ins max, just doesn't show it in the pic.

I love Garage Journal. Some amazing garages on there.

And $1800 pre-installation. You've gotta put in before you pour.

have to say though, there's really only one way to lift a car on it, and it really restricts work near the rockers on the bottom of the car. those are big pads that on a small car take up a lot of space. for $1800 i wouldnt want a major issue like that. i still vote for the lifts that roll the car on its side for access to the undercarriage.

Same. It's badass how it works and how it tucks away, but it seems like it would cause a lot of headaches for working under there.

From China? No thanks...

sissor lifts actually aren't bad. That's great for doing small maintenance like rotating wheels, brakes and such. It's a pain in the ass for other things like if you're doing a fuel rail or even dropping certain center pieces just because of how wide it goes, and you can't really adjust it much more than that. For the average DIY-er, it's awesome.

Who all is on garagejournal thats on here? I found a few guys, but seems like there's more.

we have lifts at my work that sink into the ground-- but they are 2 huge cylinders. also rise about 7 feet high. It makes it great for older people like me to work on doors-- no bending over for anything, and no stupid poles in the way.
as far as servicing- there really isnt any problems, a seal once every few years and it isn't that hard to get to to replace

They look like subterranean mounted motorcycle lifts in tandem.

and think of how much of a pain it would be to fix it

Prolly unbolts with four nuts/bolts and pulls straight up.
