[Shop-talk] 4-post lift thoughts

[Matt]

 I do like the idea of having at least one heavy duty sliding cross member
that I use with my 4 poster that I can put a bottle jack on and lift the car
with on the lift.On the other hand, I don't have full spanning trays.  This
discussion has me thinking.  The idea of flat actually appeals to me - I am
not anticipating gallons of oil or coolant or fuel to come raining down.  I am
looking to optimize light weight and ease of storage.  Flat "slats" maybe 2-3
feet wide that would span the platforms up to as wide as I use them (for
truck) that would stack on top of each other when not deployed is what I am
considering.  I have rolls of oil absorbant matting that I would lay on top of
the slats to prevent dripping down as that is all I would normally be battling
is drips.  I might have to have a couple of shorter ones that would fit
between tiers on the skinniest car. Matt

Paul,

You've got a good point about not using something flat and/or absorbent.
