[Shop-talk] Garage ceiling height

I bought a DirectLift ProPark 9 because it has wider than 'normal' 
ramps. This makes it wide enough for my F250 pick up yet narrow enough 
for my MGA & Alfa Romeos. It will even fit an MG Midget but it helps to 
have a spotter as the tires of the Midget have to run along the inner 
edges of the ramps.

There are some lifts with re-positional ramps - one or both can be moved 
laterally for wider or narrower vehicles.
