How about putting them in opposite corners with the center posts lined up along the centerline of the garage. That way you preserve all four garage spots.

I ordered an AMGO lift that was damaged beyond being installable by the shipping company. The installer should have refused it. It has been a cluster trying to get it replaced. I am ready to give up. I was at Eagles Canyon Raceway in Decatur, TX over the weekend. They had three of the...

Not sure how much width adjustment you are looking for, but several of the Bendpak four post lifts adjust by about 8 inches. They are all available with 120V as an option. Bendpak just had a pretty massive price increase...

So why the switch from BYB to BP? Price? Or do you prefer the design (channel versus enclosed post)? You mentioned the BP is a bit slow. Is the BP 120V? Going through the same choice right now with their respective trailer lifts. Thanks. Bob

I did a similar search. I was very close to buying the GP7. Rotary makes one that's pretty narrow, but I wanted something with a higher rise like the GP7. I ended up buying an AMGO OGX-10H. It is right at 135 in narrow format. I am installing with the extra 6in width that takes it to...

Great to come across your post. I have similar requirements--extra tall lift to clear me at 6'2". But I have one more requirement--extra-low pads. This AMGO has 3 1/2" pad height! That compares to my other candidate, the Bendpak GP-7 which has 4 1/2" pad height. My Miata is just under 4...

It works great in my garage. I can route the digital output of the TV to the mixer. With YouTube and a mic, I have Garage Karaoke!

I forgot about R&R aluminum trailers. I will check them out. Any regrets about getting a 16ft? Lots of advice of folks saying always get at least an 18ft.

If you want to take the garage CO detector, you can get a Z-Wave integrated CO detector that can be integrated with your Ring alarm or other Z-Wave home automation system.

1200lb car hauler, eh? What kind do you have?

I talked to Bendpak directly. Actually, I submitted a question on their contact page, and they called me up the next day! Indeed, Bendpak does not require the BLX to be bolted down. Also, they offered me a better price than Best Buy Automotive. And they gave me contact info for a couple of...

Yeah, it seems to be particular to the BLX. They said the didn't need to bolt down the 7W. Hey, regarding the 9ST. Do yout park under it on a daily basis? I was wondering whether the narrowness of that lift makes it awkward to park under with like a midsize car.

Thanks for all of the feedback. I ended up going to with a 1/8" full broadcast mix in a dark gray multicolor flake. I was not too impressed with the initial result. Indeed, like those last posts indicated, it was much too rough after just a single topcoat. Would have been a ***** to clean...

As I decend deeper into my track hobby, it is time to buy a car hauler (Aluma, Trailex or Futura to tow an MX5 with a Colorado ZR2). To avoid taking up space in the garage, I am eyeing a trailer lift. These trailers are pretty light, all about 1200 to 1400 lbs. I realize I cannot put the car...

I'm finishing up construction of a new home with my dream garage of 1400 sq ft and high ceilings. I am pretty active at the race track and intend put in a two post lift for maintenance so it's more than just decorative. I've got three local installers here in Houston, TX who are willing to do...
