I’m a bit of a neat freak when I’m working on my stuff. Frankly, I just can’t stand working on dirty parts or dirty cars or in a dirty shop… It makes me clumsy and messy which in turns makes every thing all the more dirty. It’s a viscous cycle that makes my head hurt contemplating.

When the MaxJax lift was announced in our forums a few months ago, I decided I had to have one. It’s compact size was perfect for my low shop ceilings (9′) and I figured its portable posts would be great for when I just wanted to get the unit out of my way. In my mind, I considered the MaxJax Portable Lift to be a sort of replacement for my trusty floor jack and jack stands. I had one shipped to Texas as soon as I possibly could.
