    Bad position

    I’ve tried and failed to rectify that on 2 Maglights! After messing with them for WAY too long, they went in the trash! I dont buy Maglights anymore for that reason! The diameter tolerance doesn’t to be that tight! Mi Dos Centavos

    Anyone have one of those 4 post lifts that you can move around when empty

    Anyone using the Bendpak GoAir mini compressor on their lift? Other ideas?

    VDub, I can tell you from experience that anything wider than the columns is a potential problem. I have an HD-9 and often have to fold the mirrors and be VERY careful as I drive onto the runways. I suspect that will be even more difficult with the Narrow lift. I ran a line with quick...

    Lift location in a 3 car garage

    Cougar, After whacking my head on the ramps a few times I drilled out the pins so that I can remove the ramps EVERY time I have a car on it! These APEX ramps are much easier to put on and take off. I think there is a Banner at the top of this Forum for the APEX ramps! Cheers, BN

    Lift location in a 3 car garage

    E-Tek, The ramps are foam as in Structural Foam with a foam covering. It’s the same basic design as RaceRamps at about 1/3rd the cost! I think they weigh 9 lbs each. The other benefit is that they clip onto receivers on the runways, the stock ramps are attached with pins. The approach...

    Lift location in a 3 car garage

    Slow yellow, I just bought the new APEX foam ramps from Bendpak, I have an HD-9 4 Post and the stock ramps were a pain. The APEX ramps with the receivers is about $500 Cheers, BN

    Any recent asphalt driveway costs to share?

    I think it would help out OP if the cost was per square foot. $88,000 dollars for my driveway or I paid $2600 3 years ago isn’t as valuable as $2.75 per square foot. I agree with all our posters, this industry is wrought with schyters, please do your homework! My guy was the REAL deal...

    Manwithtools, I’ll be curious to heat your quotes, up here we tax the Gravel, the Tar, the dump truck, the dump truck tires, the drivers shoes….. Tax and Spend! Taxachusetts! Cheers, BN

    Any recent asphalt driveway costs to share?

    I had my Driveway done recently. 400 feet long about 12 feet wide 5750 square feet.. They dig up and removed the old asphalt, put down 6” of new dense grade. 3” base coat and 2” finish coat. It was almost exactly $4 square foot. That’s Massachusetts pricing. Cheers, BN
