    4 post lift discussion

    I have the same lift - DX-9000XLT. I ended up with just purchasing their (Advantage) LED Lighting kit ( pawned it off on somebody else to get for me as a Christmas present) and I also went with the manual bridge jack and I love it. I like being able to "feel" the control I have with the manual...

    Lift modifications Thread- Lets see them!

    I have a Advantage DX-9000XLT that I had delivered and installed myself memorial day weekend of 2020. I got the manual bridge jack also with it. With the bridge jack you get the 4 extenders and the plain round pads that make contact with the vehicle. Does anyone have a lead on the Frame style...

    The Retired Man's Garage Journey - a four post lift is next

    If you have the room, I recommend the Advantage DX-9000XLT. I've owned it for a year now in my 36x24x12 and Its plenty long for my 1/2 ton pickup, Posts are not in the way of anything. I also have the manual bridge jack, I want another but the prices are so high right now I'm going to wait it...

    Advantage Lifts 9000 XLT extra parts, where do they go?

    I had the same question when I took delivery of my DX-9000XLT back on memorial day 2020. I e-mailed a picture to Advantage and they do go on the end of each track to keep any bridge jacks and jack tray from rolling off.

    Just Ordered an Advantage Lift !

    I got the rubber pads to help offset minor floor sloping issues to help level the lift out more, and they do seem to help with the walking in my case. My floor is bare concrete sealed with Legacy industrial HD-39

    Just Ordered an Advantage Lift !

    Also Love my Advantage DX-9000XLT delivery taken a few days before Memorial day. Had it up over 2 partial days. Engine Hoist and wheel dollies were used for setup. I did have an extra set of hands to help me stand up the posts with the crossbar attached. Only Add-on was the manual bridge jack...

    Which ramp width/holes for Advantage 9000 xlt 4 post

    Move the NON power ramp. Install the power ramp and make sure you choose the correct holes so you can still install the T Handle to work the locks. I had a brain fart and had to unbolt and move it over.
