If you move to a wider, longer lift your bridge jack may not fit, it would be to narrow to fit between the ramps. Also ramp designs differ between brands, the jack may not be compatible with all designs. Just an observation from your post. I have a BendPak and if I were to replace it I would...

Welcome, You are just down the road from me. If you do not receive any information here I would recommend Oldgas.com it is a petrolinia based forum that contains a wealth of information out vintage gas stations and equipment.

I designed my building around the hydronic heating system. 2,400 square feet, 9’ side walls, full foundation, 2x6 walls, and an insane amount of insulation. I keep my system set a 60 degrees 365/24/7, it is very comfortable to work in and I never worry about condensation on bare metal. I have a...

I Parkerize the hardware when I do restorations. It is somewhat durable. I also have had many parts Zinc plated by a local company, so far they have held up well but the car is not an everyday driver...

Mine is 100’ behind the house. Close enough to keep an eye on it, and within range if I see unwanted activity.
