Guys,

I have had this for 5 years now and put together a review for anyone that might be considering a lift for their home garage/shop.

Cheers!

Very cool!
I commented in the vid, but I'll ask here, too.
Have you had any concerns about the anchors pulling out of the floor?
I imagined something much more stout to fasten the pillars down. (Picturing my Ram doing a "faceplant" off of a two-poster.... )

I've seen those portable car lifts they sell at Costco. Although they don't raise the vehicle as high as the ones you are showing. But I have a garage door opener above the vehicles in the garage that poises height problems.

Nice, I'm thinking of getting a set, for a few years, I haven't because of my garage's thin slab floor.
And jack hammering up the old floor isn't really an option.

I got to ask, as the video shows a rather large shop with no need for a lift that has a limited lifting height, why you'd choose these over a full height lift ?

When first get any lift installed, who wants to crawl under the big SUV first??? I left my Tahoe on it for a couple of days about 6" off the ground just to give me a little peace of mind that nothing was going to pull out. That was 5 years ago.... It does take a little while when it is new to get that comfort level up....

How thin is your floor? You may have other options such as a 4 poost lift. IN general think most manufacturers only spec the need for a 4" slab for a 4 post lift.

6" thick, but is cracked in a few spots. poured in 1949 seems at sometime a ground hog tunneled under and the p/o never did anything so the ground under slab settled and it cracked.
Rolling a floor jack across the floor you can hear spots that sound hollow under the slab.
