It displays error code E405 on startup which has something to do with the rear camera but I don't have a service manual and I cannot get any help from...

    Got a Two-Post Lift...? Tell Me About It, Lets Create a Buyers Guide!!

    I have 2 Mohawks. Both were purchased used at fantastic prices. I had a local place come and install the first one, and after watching that I swore I'd never pay for it again. (not because they did a bad job, they were fantastic, but because it's rediculously easy). The first one is 7klb...

    Compressed air setup HALP!!

    awesome. I'm pretty much settled on 3/4" black iron pipe leading from the compressor up towards the ceiling. From there it will slope upward towards the ends of the shop where the drops are with T's facing up at each drop and 1/4 turn drains at the bottoms of the drops. I'm going to skip the...

    What brand lift do you have?

    Maintain your lift and you won't have a problem. Yes it does lift uneven occasionally, but I don't know why no one mentioned it but Mohawk lifts have a block with a valve and you pull the valve and can raise/drop the far side independently. I'm sure with a little bleeding they wouldn't have the...

    Built-it-myself tools/machines - show us what you've done

    lol i hear ya! I always throw a peice of cardboard over it when I'm welding just cause I don't want an explosion. I really need to put a quick disconnect on it like I used for the cars, but I've been lazy since I built it. Not to mention she only runs on 12v, the other battery is there for the...
