I attached some more pics of lift components. It does have 9-92 written on it which maybe was when it was inspected or first installed. Only one of the columns has NYS USA which I believe is a steel manufacturer. The width is adjustable which is why I have extra chain.

not sure what you mean by racking. rocking? There is one spot for the ram to rack but the platform has nothing to rack on which is my issue with this lift. Making it safe while up in the air seems to be an easier task with the use of under car stands or 4x4s. But I would think that there is a...

Yes the lift is located in the us. I do care about what others think along with ideas I haven't thought of which is why I posted. Comparing it to the triumph I built for my uncle and this bendpak I have experience with, this 4 post feels to be better constructed using high quality steel. I am...

I don't see myself getting another lift. I think that its better constructed than a cheap cable driven 4 post, but I also understand it is sketch with the lack of a fail-safe. Maybe it was ALI approved at one time, but doesn't matter since I cant figure out manufacturer. The lift pump says John...

What you are saying is that if the emergency locking retractor gets accidently locked up when moving the lift up or down it may be more damaging/annoying? Or it will break under a heavy load pulling it down I wouldn't be trusting it more but I would look at it as another layer of security for a...

Now I am thinking about retractable seatbelts on each corner post as an added safety measure when lifting and lowering. They are strong and lockup when pulled quickly.

Yes everything basically hangs on the chains and its tension is holding everything together. On the posts with the hydraulic, there is a chain attached to the ram and lifts up the front and back corners on that side. On the posts with the link bar, there is a chain that runs from the top of...

I am a big fan of this lift mainly due to its small size and seemingly quality construction. I like the idea of some lock ladder system to go in each post like the newer cable driven 4 posts, but it maybe difficult to implement. My fence post idea would be simple, but won't work when operating...

A couple of summers ago I got this used 4 post lift for my home garage. Aside from the lift pump, there is no indication of company or max load. I like to say that its amish made. Its a chain driven 12 footer with an adjustable width. It was a rusty white before I sprayed it blue and green. Not...

Hello all, I am having some issues with this used Liftmaster 3800 I bought. It will work using the up and down buttons on the unit, however, the remote will not close the garage. When I am programming the travel limits and have to press the remote (after setting the up position) all I hear is a...
