I'm in need of a new caulk gun and the only style I seem to be able to find has the smooth round shaft. My experience with a half dozen different guns like that is they work like crap. I bought the b

Guys, thanks for the response. I would have replied sooner but I've been a little under the weather the last few days. I think I'll pick up the one that Brian recommends and give it a try. I guess no

I hadn't realized those trays are plastic and not sheet metal. How wide are the trays, and do you often have to adjust the width of the platforms for different vehicles? Thanks! Brad ________________

Paul, You've got a good point about not using something flat and/or absorbent. I'd rather not add the attachment rails if I don't have to so laying them on top of the platforms is probably my best op

Yes, platforms are the long beams that you park the vehicle on. I hadn't realized the platforms were not adjustable on the newer lifts. My platforms can be adjusted out to almost 9' outside edge to o

That's thinking outside the box :) I don't know why I was thinking full coverage under a vehicle, it only needs to be in the area where the drips come from. Of course on a Triumph that's leaking and

Matt, I fabricated a heavy duty angle iron platform that sits down between the platforms that allows me to use a bottle jack. I made it mainly for use on my Triumphs so it's too narrow to use with my

Phil, It sounds like your platforms are in a fixed position. Since my platforms go from 0" gap to about 80" gap it looks like something that lays on top of the platforms would be my best approach. My

Eric, In the past when I had the lift setup it did seem to have a lot of "stuff" sitting on it when I wasn't using it :) The ramps on mine are 14" wide. This is an early lift built by a company calle

Brian, This is another good idea for creating an alternative to drip pans. I've come to the conclusion that I won't be adding the angles at the bottom of the platforms/ramps partly because of all the

Another aspect of my 4-post lift is the effort required to push the platforms sideways when changing from one vehicle width to another. The platforms are HEAVY and don't slide all that well and tend

Ok, next issue with the 4-post lift. The in-feed ramps on my lift were fixed ramps (welded to the platforms) and were only about 16" long. That made for a pretty steep angle. Matter of fact the Spitf

Paul, the style shown in the link won't work for my lift as my platforms hook over the beams blocking any place to hook the ramps. However the ones Larry Spector is referring to would definitely work

Robo, My platforms (rails?) are adjustable which allows me to lift small vehicles and large vehicles just by sliding the platforms. I sure do wish Boeing was in my area! Thanks, Brad On Wed, Jan 14,
