Charlie,
I have a Direct Lift 4-post lift and my garage has a 7' door and 9' ceiling=
s.=C2=A0 It can certainly get my Healey up high enough so that I can work u=
nderneath with a rolling mechanic's stool, or even kneeling.=C2=A0 I can't =
stand under it, but I haven't found a job under the car that it didn't make=
better.=C2=A0 Exhaust system work is MUCH better when you can sit down whi=
le working.
