    My install of my Cheap 2 Post lift. Is it worth it? Maybe.

    All of my pulleys and welds are fine.

    My install of my Cheap 2 Post lift. Is it worth it? Maybe.

    I believe the bit wobbled opening up the bottom of the hole. We rented the hammer drill & bit and the bit they gave us was about 2' long! Other than that, we did everything right. Didn't tighten them up to fast, and just tightened them down until we felt them cinch, then went back and gave it...

    My install of my Cheap 2 Post lift. Is it worth it? Maybe.

    My concrete anchors kept loosening up to the point I ran out of threads. I'm able to stack up washers and pull them completely out though without messing up the hole at all. I've ordered Simpson SET epoxy anchor and threaded rods.

    My install of my Cheap 2 Post lift. Is it worth it? Maybe.

    I just finished installing my TP9A. Mine came with all of the axles masked off. All pulleys rotate freely. The paint got scratched here & there but for me it's a tool, not eye candy. The only hitch is on the front arm on the passenger side post. The weld barely rubs the plug it articulates...

    Perfect! That is a very nice, functional garage you ended up with.

    Clutch help.

    Gravity & pressure bleeding won't work if the air is trapped up at the master piston which just so happens to be the highest point in the Ranger hydraulic system... Level that master, or point the end up instead of down and you'll made some progress. The same (well same problem, opposite...

    Poor Man's Retro Retreat -- in 440 square feet

    I like that folding work bench idea. How well is it holding up? Have you used it much? Also: Beautiful car!

    Clutch help.

    This guy is on to something although gravity bleeding did NOTHING for me. The ranger Master cylinder points down so the air trapped in the Master floats up away from the bleed ****** on the end. A pressure bleeder on the master reservoir will help. Leave the lines connected to the master but...

    I like the idea, but $1700 does seem about 75% too high for a lift that requires a user supplied drill to work.

    Was there a cost benefit to doing a block footer wall over formed? Looks like a great project. :thumbup:

    That's nice. But to the runways really have no fence to prevent you from driving off the side? I can't really tell by the video.

    What did you guys do in your garage today?

    I backed my '03 Cobra out of my garage because there wasn't enough room in my 1 car garage to remove the driver axle from the rear end. Then I replaced the 5 bent lug studs on the Moser axle, put the rear end back together and pulled the car back into the garage.

    Let's see you, your tools, toys and garages in action

    Hello, Newb here. I joined so I could search in my quest to figure out how much a garage might cost me. This is my current "garage". Really just a laundry room that I squeeze my toy car in. I bought the house right before the peak of the housing market, made some improvements to it, and now...
