I've got a LS3-4L80E combo in a c10 truck with the computers mounted under the dash. The grommet I used has a 1.5" id and fits in about a 2" hole. I was able to pass the all the connectors on the engine side of the harness through the 2" hole leaving the computers and large connectors on the...

This is what the wheels look like...

This is the only pic I have of what it looks like now, the bottom of the jack is flush with the bottom of the runways. I cut the side plates shorter and moved the whole assemble up and re welded it back together. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

There are spring loaded wheel that retract when weight it applied. In this pic it hung below the runways so I ended up modifying it so it doesn't.

I only bought one bridge jack because of price. You can get all 4 tires off with just a little planning. I usually jack up one end and use jack stands then jack up the other end. Works well on unibody cars but I cant do that with my truck because the frame is too narrow to set the jack stands...

I bought one of these and it works great. Maybe a little more getting it to Canada https://www.summitracing.com/parts/dmr-1375901

I install doors first, ceiling later and it wasnt that difficult to work around. I left the tracks alone but removed the brackets that connect the tracks to the ceiling. Obviously do not open the door during this time. I did one at a time just incase I needed to open another door for...

Dannmar makes rolling jacks that are identical to bendpak but a few hundred cheaper. My 6k jack was $999 shipped from summit a few months ago. I imagine the 4500 is a little cheaper. I use 4"x4" wood blocks when I need to jack something in the middle and they work good.

Look for a used name brand lift, I found a 12k 4 post Rotary that I picked up for $1000. The next best $1000 I spent was for a air/hydro bridge jack!

My septic is aerobic and the sprinkler heads were not in the way thankfully. I had to adjust 1 head to spray 180* instead of 360*

I don't go up there very often and I can't really add a stair case without causing outer problems with my layout. If I ever move and build another shop with a 2nd floor a stair case is a must along with a restroom under the stairs.

I like your trolley set up and may do something like that in the future. I shattered my ankle on the foot that broke about 10 years earlier so between the 2 injuries there is permanent damage. Doctor says an ankle fusion is very likely in my future when the pain becomes too much on a daily...

I have thought about trying to build something to hoist stuff into the attic. Last year I was trying to carry material up the ladder, the feet of the ladder slipped, I fell off and broke my heel bone. I was out of work for 10 weeks and still hurt from time to time almost a year later. We also...

Only 1 car I own will fit under it and it stays in the house garage since it's my daily driver. The lift is mainly just for maintance and projects Thank you! Thank you, I love that truck and hope to never get rid of it. I would only trade it for a low mile, same year, same options, just a...
