I found this one on Facebook Marketplace for just over $1000. It is extremely heavy duty, and I can even use it outside on the driveway if needed.

I was a rusted mess when I first got it, and the arms were difficult to adjust. I tore it down with the help of my winch on my truck and ground it back to bare metal. Here is one pic off my security camera, but it works like new now.

I have been working restoring this SnapOn Mid-Rise Scissor Lift to work on our cars. It is rated at 6000 Lbs and goes a little over 3 feet in the air. It was a rusted pile of metal before I took it apart, and it works great now.

I have a SPX Power Team Model GPM08E32A 120 Volt Car Hoist Power Unit for sale that is off a Snap-On Car Scissor Lift. The motor and pump work great, but it needs a new Release Valve that is SPX Part Number BH-7008-37 that I am not able to locate. It could be fixed or used for parts. The cart...

A double drum hoist? Have you seen one similar before? I need to look into this more.

It actually locks at different heights similar to a typical car lift. I have used it to help repair my RV and other stuff, and it is built extremely well, but I have also used Jack Stands as a secondary precaution.

The wooden crate has the word Winch and US stenciled on it, and the controller has the words up and down imprinted next to the buttons. I was thinking it could possibly be some military equipment or something. It also has a 110 volt type plug attached to it, but it works better on 220 volts...

I know what the red airlift is already with the Ad from eBay. I am talking about the stuff in the yellow crate. thank You

I have a question that I can’t seem to find a answer from anyone including a couple groups on Facebook, which one was dedicated to old winches if it even is one. I picked up this air lift today to work on my truck which is from 1959 shown in the ad for it, and I also picked up a winch or hoist...

I have a 2001 Audi TT Roadster! 😉

I was thinking the same type of ramps, but I was thinking aluminum to make them more portable if needed. The other option is wood and driving on the permeability when I park my car into the garage. I like this design as one possible option.

The metal ramps are not short, and they are more than long enough to put on the side of the lift to raise my car high enough to the lift under it. They are aluminum so much lighter than using the wood 2x12 ramps. The Race Ramps ate nice, but they are $$$

I actually will be taking delivery of the exact same Scissor lift from a car dealer, and I am told that it all works properly. It is going to be delivered to my house on Thursday night, and I am really hoping it all works properly as I am told by the seller. I am on other boards, and I know...

I recently got a used Snap-On Mid Rise Scissor Lift to work on my different cars and truck, and I realize that for working on my Audi TT that I will need to get some ramps for it to fit on top of it. I know this topic has been discussed, but I typically see people use the higher priced racing...
