Had the same issue, the problem for me was that there was still air in the system. You definitely don't want your car on the lift while bleeding or before your system is fully bled. The bleeding screw leaking is probably due to the screw not being tight enough. I had to bleed the system A LOT of...

I used to have the same problem, tried everything there is to try, but in the end it turned out that the system simply was not bled all the way. I had to bleed it about 30 times or more. Bleed it, have it go all the way up and down a couple of times, then bleed it again... After that it was...

Bump.

I bought a very nice Digital Torque Adaptor to verify/calibrate my torque wrenches. I already went through all of them, some were right on the mark, some needed adjustment. This QC2FR75 is just a bit under and I want to adjust it, but not sure how it's done with this wrench. I removed the end...

No, they are heavy steel rods.

I have mine set at 115.5" measured at the outside edges of the base plates.

The supplied hoses are very short, if you want to keep them attached to the posts and store them away on the ceiling, you'd still have to disconnect them from the pump, which would require system rebleeding anyway. I can't remember now, I'll measure tonight and post. I set my posts so that...

True, that made it harder to bleed the system. Before I hooked up the posts I hung the hoses in an upward spiral and pushed the oil all the way to the quick disconnects first. Having my hoses connect from above I also reversed the quick disconnects so that the posts and the pump have female...

I've never removed the posts since I first mounted them. And now that the cables are out of the way, I never remove them either, especially that the system needs to be rebled every time the cables get reconnected. I've found that even with the posts mounted, there's still enough room for the...

Thanks! Not sure about the maximum length, my setup is roughly 25' on one side and 35' on the other. I've found that as long as the system is bled well, the difference in length has no impact. But I had to bleed it maybe like 30 or so times to get all the air out. After I've done that, lifting...

I've also had MaxJax for about 6 months now, very pleased. Recently completed my "permanent" install. Here it is in action:

Ta-da! :beer: Again, thanks to everyone for the ideas! Finished the doors today. As it turned out, the same factory (RSI) has the same doors made in exactly half the width and I could order four doors separately instead of cutting these, but the cost is $60 per door delivered as I was told, so...

I think I might be able to use the inner hinge from this setup and use a piano hinge to connect the doors. So that they would still fold like the closet doors do, but then the inner hinge would allow to swing them both out of the way past 90 degree.

Thank a lot, guys! I like the bifold idea as well, the doors are definitely MDF, so they should survive the cut just fine. The only thing is, I think the cut will be visible going across the groves in the door. The whole set came from Lowe's, if I remember correctly. I'll try to see if indeed...
