I've just finished installing a four post lift in the garage...
The first lift of a car:
...and going down:
Apparently I'm a very sad man for videoing that

If you want, I'll be happy to place them here. You have my emailadress.
@wrinx; very nice!!!
I have a 2 pole lift in my barn but unfortunately the sz is too low to fit the picking arms...
Hope to install an extra 4 pole lift within an few years, maintaining the sz on the cold concrete floor NEXT to a unusable lift is really annoying...
Kind regards, fRank _________________ SZ No. 044 |

Very cool!
My garage is too low for a serious lift sadly, but there are other options. |

I think I'm in roughly the same area! I will have the SZ underneath too and my 155 Q4 on top. The Q4's squarer shape will fit inbetween the roof beams better so might have a little bit more room spare...but not much!

That must be frustrating...have you tried driving the SZ onto four planks of wood to give more height?
I didn't buy a 2-post because the main reason for having mine is storage of two cars, 2-post is better for working on cars though.

What do you have in mind? I looked at some of the low level hydraulic ramps a while ago. They store almost flat but raise the car to about a metre, which is useful.

I am looking at something like that. But I am not in a hurry. |
