[Chevelle-list] 2 post lift

[SLWeaver]

No idea about the quality... but I was thinking about a 4 post myself so I wouldn't have to worry as much about the stress put on the garage floor   ... how thick is the garage floor...
For the 2 post you will need to dig (jackhammer/air chisel/saw through rebar) footings (through the floor and into the base) for the (4) anchor bolts on each post and fill with grout, even then it looks like it would be 'tippy'...
The four post spreads the weight out more evenly and no way is it going to tip over (pull the anchor bolts out of the ground/break the bolts/crack garage floor with now discontiuous rebar, etc.) , not sure the 4 post would even need anchor bolts grouted into a footing dug/sawed into the floor, probably a good idea anyway, but may be something to think about...

When we finally get our shop done I plan on buying one from there also.  I agree that their lifts look good and are well priced I think.  The problem is they have too many choices.  Are you near one of their showrooms?  Or just going to have it shipped?

Since the list kinda slow right now (I can only assume with the cooler weather EVERYONE is out working on their cars and to busy to post...wink). Anyways, i'm looking to buy a 2 post asymetrical lift for my garage and i'm leaning heavily towards this one. Anyone got any opinions or dealing with this company. Their stuff looks to be well built.
