I'm planning to buy a shop lift this spring. I haven't decided between a 2 post or 4 post lift, and I haven't decided on a vendor. The going rate seems to be between $2500-$3000 delivered for a 7000

I used to work on cars for a living, and have used all types. I built a new garage a couple of years ago and decided to buy a lift. I did a lot of research before purchasing it, So for what it's wort

My Cytech lift is 37" between ramps. If I get my Healey perfectly centered on the ramps, which I rarely do, I have 3" between the inside of the tire and the edge of the ramp. I find that this is a pr

I bought an Eagle 4-post lift in '95; I think Eagle is actually a reseller for Cytech. When I needed some parts under warranty, I ended up talking to Cytech people. I use the lift more for storage th

See my other post about adjusting ramp width, re: lumber. Since the ram rides under one of the ramps, moving it, I think, will affect the necessary cable length. I don't know what design changes the

I should clarify what I meant about the "custom" work that Backyard Buddy did on my lift. The right platform was moved to the inside 6" and new holes were drilled for the bolts. The retaining clips f
