Can I ask what lift you’re using it on? What bridge jack you have? And how do you typically use it? (Lift vehicle, get under and pump?) One of the things I’ve read is that some of the sliding jacks may actually hit the ground before the treads do, which increases the drive over height.

I’ve been reading about alternative jacks: but can’t find definitive answers about what works with the Bendpak HD9XW

Still contemplating a 4 Post lift, vs QuickJacks… If we go 4 Post, it’s definitely a Bendpak HD9XW… But the Bendpak Bridge Jack is just outrageously priced, and I’m not sure my Craftsman Pro 27 compressor even has the CFM it asks for.… I’ve seen mentions of airbag jacks, scissor jacks: Anybody...

This is the blunt input I need! I can’t really cut much out of the ceiling (I could gain another 6-7”…. probably not worth all the engineering). What I get hung up on is putting the lift to work: I have it in my mind that a 4 post would be a game changer for basic maintenance/work…. And I...

Yea, it’s on my pros/cons list: I’m tempted to post another thread today to try and clear up my thought process here… The 4 post seems like a great tool, but I’m starting to wonder if it’d be more of a hindrance for my needs? It’s quite an investment to have buyers remorse!

How useful do you find the jack tray?

I’m still debating whether it’s worth the cost of a 4 post lift in my small garage. In doing so, I’m trying to consider all costs. Back story: I’m just trying to make oil changes a little easier, and get my car out of harms way from the kiddos when mom parks in her stall for the winter. I...

I have contacted advantage lifts myself also, as they’re still on my short list. I’m sure it’s busy season for them, but communication has been a little tough (slow to respond to emails, and having to transfer to a few different people so I could ask for instructions on the lift. I’m not...

I keep going back and forth on it…. Wildfire was on my short list at one point, but the lack of an ALI and the similar cost of the Advantage swayed me away from them. I wont be working these lifts too hard: but I would still like to feel safe if my kid runs underneath it.

The 9000HD is what I’m also considering. I like the design of their sleeved posts better… but the bendpak (HD9XW) has a wider track so my truck woudn’t be overhanging the sides as much… Good points. I’d prefer to install the lift myself, but it would likely require me taking a day off of...

What scares me is the parts availability. There’s a place not too far from here that sells Advantage Clones (Universalift): They’re tempting because I like the design and he’s a short drive away should I need support, but I also feel a little more warm and fuzzy when you put that ALI sticker...

I’m shopping for 4 post lifts for my small garage (at the very least I figure it’ll make oil changes a little easier, and get my toy up out of harms way for the winter). Bendpak makes a lift that seems to fit the bill pretty good (it’ll make good use of the space while still being just big...

That thought crossed my mind last night also….

My daughter’s brand new Cozy Coupe should fit! I don’t expect to be able to fit a whole car underneath: but I figured it’d make toys and stuff easier to get to. But again: then it becomes a chore/process to get the car out when I want to enjoy it. I’ve considered quick jacks too (figured I...

I’m considering adding a four post lift to my small two car garage. Space is limited width-wise, And ceiling space is just under 10 feet. My thought is that a four post lift would make my oil changes and basic maintenance a little bit easier. Also, I think that having a lift would let me store...
