    Bendpak HD9 new runway paint

    Lift is all together and this slippery paint is not good. Bendpak assured me it was still non skid but with dust on the tires from gravel driveway lost traction and had to full forward then back. Definitely a disappointment. Must be a money saver passed down to consumer.. Why not make it an...

    What did you do "IN" your garage today?

    Bendpak HD9 new runway paint

    Talked to a local Bendpak dealer today about a HD9XW and he told me they changed the runway paint on 4 posts this year and has had a few people complain that it is smooth now. I called Bendpak and they said yes it no longer has the grit in it but it should not be slippery. Does anyone have a...

Would wider track get in the way when its jacked up and you have to lean in to work on things. Just trying...

    Direct lift 9k overkill? or more stable

    Not sure what growth would require more than 8000 pounds as a daily driver or classic. Maybe Im just not thinking of everything. Would never own a dually. Most is a 2500 pickup. More interested in if there is stability difference or stability issue when wrenching on things. Just trying to make...

    Direct lift 9k overkill? or more stable

    Built new barn and about to pull trigger on 4 post lift. Decided on direct lift. Would Pro Park 9 be overkill if I have nothing over 7000 pounds including tow rig? Talked to Direct lift and they said there shouldn't be a difference is stability and 9k only needed for dually. Any one with...
