I have been considering one for over a year but couldn't find anyone with feedback. I appreciate the info on how they handled the drip pans, can you imagine if you needed a part or had a bigger problem.
I have a BB that I use for service work and was looking for another 4 post just to stack...
I have replaced about 6 of those at different locations, all had air bubbles leaking from the vessel.
It was cheaper to buy a new tank with the sloan equipment already installed. Once switched out , all of those still had the same flushing power of the originals.
Something to consider, maybe...
I am reading it a little different. $120 diagnosis fee to show up Plus the labor to install the parts which is usually at least $100 per hour + the cost of the part which is marked up of course. So it was $185 for the part and labor.
Still a rip off but many places now charge a flat service...
Thanks .. another helpful reply.
If you see my post right above yours I did call this morning and took the time to post the manufacturers suggested procedure for the benefit of others who need to do this in the future.
Wanted to service it this weekend and I got home to late to call BYB on Friday.
I know a bunch of guys here own them so thought I would ask instead of waiting until Monday to call and service it next weekend.
All those instructions are for the newer, updated lifts. I checked the website and my...
I have a older BYB 4 post that has NO grease fittings. I have lubed the 4 corner pulleys a couple of times by taking them apart easy enough.
My question is how do you get the pins out of the under ramp pulleys in order to grease them ? Yes I removed the set screws
I tried a few things...
x's 3 - followed this same procedure for years - Last year I bought some of the smoke bombs at Home depot - Now I just light a smoke bomb and just throw a tarp over the trap instead of using the water dip
30 years as a metal drummer here - the best thing to do is to have a dead space in between the walls - think room within a room
Some cheap ideas - hang moving blankets (the thick quilted ones) - carpet with multiple layers of padding on the walls and even egg cartons on the walls (lots of them)
PLEASE report back on this lift
I have tried to get some good info on this lift for the past 3 months and haven't had much luck
I have a BYB and want to get another 4 post strictly for storage .. thought this lift looked interesting
Thanks
I love my backyard buddy and when I purchased it 10 yrs ago I felt it was the best designed/quality lift available at that time
Just purchased a New Ram and found out my Lift is too narrow - NEVER thought it would be an issue - clears the posts - won't clear the cables
:mad:
Back then I spent...
Thank You for this post
I suspect I am having the same problems.. I have a good compressor and equipment - Where is the Best place to buy the V style fittings and couplers ?
The light switches were sparking at work when turned on and off - Brand new 1 million dollar expansion
Electricians were powering the lights directly thru the wall switches - lights are 277V
They were back installing relays after I made the call to them
