I hate to bring an old thread back to life, but anyone figure out a good solution?

Thought I'd share. Built this out of 1.5" square tube.

Haha, gotcha. Here's a picture

This thread explains is pretty well: http://www.garagejournal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=113591 I do not understand why they give you the 4 wire, when 2 is only needed.

I called Bendpak and they told me they top plate needs to be rotated to ensure proper function. :( I guess I need to bite the bullet and do it. I'll need to take the equalizer cable out and the hydraulic lines.

I read this thread: http://www.garagejournal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=248307&page=2 killahog mentions (post 30) his cables are skewed and there is a picture (post 36) that looks like mine as well. If I turn the top plate around than the micro switch will be too far away from the power unit...

I have the same issues described with the safety cable crossing like that. Anyone have any experience leaving it like that long term? The power unit is on the driver side and the top plate mounted with the micro switch housing on the power side and they still are crossed. The latches work, but...

Thanks for all the help. I ended up pulling the f-150. I ended up 9ft 1in off the rear wall to the front of the baseplate. Smaller cars shouldn't be an issue and the truck will work with little room to spare. I figure I can also back something in and/or switch the arms if needed to distribute...

I just installed the above lift this weekend. I had some help and a friend did all the safety release installation while I was drilling the holes. It is extremely hard to push in and move the handle. It is also extremely loud when the carriage passes across it and slams back into place. Any...

I tried to search, but found it difficult to find something similar to my situation and the guys will be here in 45 min. My bay isn't very deep so I want to make sure placement is as perfect as possible. My thoughts were to pull my largest vehicle in and mock it up, any other input? The biggest...

I wish we had that kind of weather today. It only gets in the 90's an humid 2 months out of the year. July/August. May - Sept can see some hot days in the 80's.

Do you think the Mini-split will work for the cubic feet of my space? I'm not expert, just seems like a lot of volume for one unit. What would be a good placement for it?

Also there are times we can get in the teens or single digits during the winter, it's just not average. Sent from my Pixel XL using Tapatalk

I haven't had to fill the propane tank yet, bit I own it so I can show around. I'm thinking it's about $1.50 a gallon. We pay about 7-8 cents a kW/h. I'd prefer to stick with propane, I had a heat pump before and didn't care for it much. Unless I could get propane as the aux heat, but I'm not...
