My thoughts, bendpak air bottle for lock release UPDATE So for Christmas this year I asked for the bendpak air bottle kit that is supposed to let you use the hydraulic cylinder to put the car down. https://www.bendpak.com/Air-Bottle-5215306-BendPak.pdf It does NOT look like a pipe bomb...

Hey guys, since I installed my 8500 a few years ago, about 9-10am every morning it's a pain to close the door. I have to situate myself (or a vehicle) to block the sun on the right hand sensor (green light). Will putting the green light sensor on the left (non sun side) and the orange on the...

A few months back I bought a bendpak rj45 from northern tool. Nobody could tell me when it was arriving or by whom. Night before it arrives they call to say I need to be home in the morning to sign for it. Not the end of the world since i'm self employed, but still a pain. I get it, it comes by...

So I need to get my driveway paved. I'm not a big fan of outsourcing anything, but this one is above what I can handle. The asphalt contractors by me are fast talkers, all have different opinions, many are related and pricing is all over the damn place. My driveway is roughly 80x20. It's...

Hey guys, i'm back on the idea of getting a rolling or sliding bridge jack for my bendpak hd7p 4 post lift. Problem is that 2-3 years ago you could get it for $950 shipped. Now, it's pretty much $1200. On top of that the car I work on most is my foxbody mustang. Best jacking points is the...

Hey guys, it should be tax return time soon and my driveway is hurting. My snowblower threw quite a bit on the lawn this year. Never was in that great of condition since we bought the house anyway. As a licensed electrical contractor, i have many connections and knowledge of most trades (i...

I know the rj45 is the thing to have, but right now i have other projects that need attention before i drop a grand on one. The jacking plates are much less. I'm a cash type of guy, if i don't have the extra cash, i don't buy it, not much into using credit cards. So if the jacking plate can...

I've been getting things together slowly in the garage, have my lift, high lift conversion done, hopefully santa will bring me a jackshaft door opener. I have to do the lower garage door seal now. It's also a bigger deal since my garage isn't yet permanently heated and i just hooked up the ice...

Hey guys, i need a new garage door seal. There is a tag on my door that says wayne dalton. Can't find and exact match though. Before i buy a generic with matching edges and try it, i'd like to see if anyone knows where to get it. Thanks for any help Joe

Well, it didn't take long to do something stupid with my new lift. I have a bendpak hd7 that goes pretty high. Not an issue with my mustang, but changed the oil on the mrs rav4 today and it didn't go so well. Roof rack hit my flourescent bulbs, which may have been a blessing since i probably...

Hey guys, I did some searches and didn't find the answer, can you use an off brand slide jack on a bendpak? If things go well, this Saturday i'll be picking up a bendpak hd7p. It's about 9 months old home use. I'd like to plan out the accessories, since it does not have any with it. While i'd...
