Yeah, she is a ******* setup. I had to cut and paste A-frames to get them to fit each other. I'm a bit worried about skids digging into the high spots and capping them off. But will check them out..........

79 Yes, and Thanks!! She cleans up pretty good in the summer, still take her to a show here and there (or out for ice cream:) ) Even still tows our boat (upgraded with 8 lug front, 3/4 ton D60 rear, 4 wheel disk, sway bars, hydro-boost, 4.10's, etc..)

I'm starting to like the pipe idea. I even have some 1/4 wall DOM left over from steering/susp links from my offroad rig. Maybe even weld a "ramp" plate angled up a bit to bottom of pipe, to tackle the high spots.... Could make some quick disconnects for it, so only put it on when driveways...

Yes, see above........

And these are mounts I'm working with......

Not sure (got it and frame for free, a while back), but here it is. Ground was not frozen enough last storm, as blade kept digging up stone, even with attempting to stop every several feet, and reposition blade height.

Driveway is 200ish foot paved from house to street. But stone from house to barn (about another 200 feet). Don't typically plow that section, but recently have needed to get other vehicles back to barn to work on and although they are AWD, not going to make it with 10-12 inch of snow, like we...

Glad you posted up. As I love the Advantage (Wildfire) 4 post. I think they are the strongest 4 post made. Even all the way up with my 4200 lb MEL 59 bird, it is rock solid (unmounted). Hard to find lifts to you can fit newer 3/4-1 tons under (and on, with the crazy wheelbase :)). I...

Maybe I'm missing something (shipping??), but looks like a lot more than a grand to me. https://realgaragelife.com/products/advantage-dx-9000xlt?pr_prod_strat=e5_desc&pr_rec_id=4f4f476ec&pr_rec_pid=671861604412&pr_ref_pid=671850463292&pr_seq=uniform...

WIldfire and Advanatge sure do look similar. Huge difference in price though. I have an advantage 9K, the taller, longer one. Very impressive. Just got a smoking deal on an open box KaTool 11K 4 post I could not turn down. I do not like the lock actuation mechanism or the rods that go to...

I tried it one time with an 8K, 4 post and a fullsize bronco on 35's (AT's). It did move the lift slightly. In my case, winch was already on truck. I have since mounted a 3/4 threaded lift eye in the concrete floor, right up against the wall out of the way, for that one 4 post, and my 2 post...

If you are anywhere near north jersey, this is probably the cheapest prices for KaTool stuff. https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/877137424760589/?ref=search&referral_code=null&referral_story_type=post I just picked up an open box Katool KT-4H110 for $2100.......

Would love one of these in my house garage, but they seemed really expensive when I was looking.

Is there some significance to the "treadplus" :p I'm pretty handy, but with 11 vehicles, I don't always have the time to dig into the electronics on my "tools" (which being a mech engineer, is not my strong suit). But I retire in 5 months, so may have more time. I would like to dig up that...

On Fords IRS (my 17 Fusion Sport and 21 GT500 anyway), as soon as you loosen camber bolt, weight of vehicle wants to send bolt straight to inner end of camber adjustment slot built into rear subframe. https://www.mustang6g.com/forums/attachments/2016-mustang-rear-camber-adjustment-pdf.98794/...

I agree on a used alignment system. I buy Hunter stuff. I bit more money, but at least there is a rep available to calibrate the equipment, since most local shops use Hunter stuff. I had a camber sensor going in one of my rear heads. Had my "hunter" guy come out and do fix and calibration. He...

Maybe I'm, just stupid, but I never understood, how things like rear camber/toe (or especially thrust angle) are adjusted on the fly with the "string" method. Due to rear alignment plates to allow IRS to settle out when putting weight back on rear tires, it is very easy to shift entire rear of...

Brings up one more win for 4 posts. Most come with wheel kits and can be moved. 4 post I bought for my 05 Cummins Dodge was great where it was, until I got a new 23 Ford PS. Both 4 dr, long beds, but Ford cab is much larger and WB is longer (even rear bumper sticks out farther with steps built...

I've actually seen those "runway" adapters for 2 post. Always thought they were a cool idea for "4 post like" storage using 2 post. https://mohawklifts.com/automotive-lifts/specialty-items/speedlane-two-post-drive-on-adapter/ or these.........

I've seen those but then you have the issue of all 4 surfaces being "level", in relation to each other. The 4 post I use for alignments, I adjusted the cables so when it is on them (and not the locks), it is perfectly level (especially side to side). You can raise the entire lift up down and...
