    MaxJax praise...

    Hey guys....I'll have to measure the garage but the bay is a decent size. The distance between the posts is 121." The floor is indeed RaceDeck and is the 18" tiles which were very easy to lay down. Oil change accessories are found online...they have the adjustable funnel type or you can make...

    I actually did take one quick picture today as I changed the oil in my commuter car. [/

    MaxJax praise...

    I ordered a MaxJax lift about a month or so ago and got it 2 weeks ago. Every part was included in the package and it went together as advertised. The only issue that I had was when bleeding the lifting, without weight, it wasn't perfectly level. I contacted Gabe and he explained that it...

    MaxJax safety concern

    Although not the heart of this discussion but...if you wanted some more flexibility in raising heights, couldn't you just drill some holes in the column and get the desired heights? I don't see why you couldn't.....just do the measurements, punch and drill the holes, clean up the shavings and...

    Your First MaxJax: What to Expect

    you do a pilot with the 5/8" bit. I'd go only about an inch or so. All that I did was center the 5/8" bit in the hole(s). Just make sure that you drill straight. I switched the hoses today and couldn't believe that all of a sudden the lift went up evenly and down evenly! Then....I raised it...

    Your First MaxJax: What to Expect

    Well...today was a good day. I got everything installed and everything works BUT, the easy part (bleeding), turned out to take a long time and it's still not right. I have one post that appears to lower faster than the other but doesn't raise as fast as the other side. I bled for about 3...

    Your First MaxJax: What to Expect

    I am ready to drill the holes tomorrow and have a question along these lines. I will actually be mounting the posts on top of my RaceDeck flooring. The RaceDeck flooring is exactly 1/2" thick so I ordered 2.5" bolts from McMaster-Carr. They weren't cheap...cost me about $40. Anyhow....my...

    Holy cow! It looks like it was packed like that?! If the box had been crushed there'd have been more collateral damage IMO. So you still didn't get everything you were supposed to get?

    Your First MaxJax: What to Expect

    PowerDubs, I couldn't agree more. Totally unacceptable on multiple levels. As most say...if it sounds too good to be true, it usually is. I am greatly reconsidering my purchase and thank you for posting regarding your experience.

    Preparation for MaxJax

    Wachuko, Exactly.......FAR EASIER to work under a lift. As far as the epoxy goes....how or why would you use it if the anchors pull up as part of the embedment process? If you epoxy the anchor...it will either not allow the seating (pull up) or the bond will break. Are you stating to expoxy...

    more discouraging news PowerDubs. I think that these guys got WAAAAY ahead of themselves on this.

    SDS plus or SDS max? SDS plus normally for $53, I haven't seen. SDS max on the other hand can be had all day in the high 30's low 40's.
