I installed a 4-post in my last garage, and found it to be the best tool
in the garage, even though I used it primarily for stacking cars. While
probably not recommended, I did wheel work by simply using a
transmission jack to support the car while slightly lowering the lift
and never had any problems. Mine was bolted to the floor - not sure I
would have tried that if the lift was on casters. That garage was only
24'x24' and never felt that being able to move the lift would have
benefited me in any way. I also installed it on an existing slab with
no worries.
New garage has room for 8 cars if I put in 3 lifts, but with the current
prices of cars that I want, it doesn't look like I'll need them unless
things change.....
Best Regards,
Chris
