Can’t wait to get them anchored down and wired up!

Seems like you’re lacking in ceiling space.

There’s a plan for that. Converting the garage back to barn style sliding doors and moving the ceiling higher up. I only need it high enough to be able to wheel under on a stool.

What does something like this lift cost?

got it off craigslist out of a car shop for $500, well got 2 of them for $500 each. The other one is claimed by another local Jalop. They used them right up until the day I picked them up so I got to see them working proper.

Wow that is a great deal! I didn’t realize you could get them that cheap. I thought it would be like $5k plus for the set.

I know! that’s what sucked me in. Granted they are older used lifts, but they work flawlessly and I can get parts for them if needed.

I can imagine old parts are just fine. Only thing to worry is the hydraulic lines leaking somehow but certainly maintainable either way. When I own a home, I definitely need these in my garage!

I checked around and I can get new lines dirt cheap for it, if needed. Which put my mind at ease.
