    The Time Has Come: Need 2 Post Lift Recommendations (Houston, Tx)

    I know this thread is old but want to add that I own a Twin Busch 242E. Very affordable and pretty good quality. I use it for my sedan, pickup, and SUV. I also work on other vehicles with it from home. There's chatter that because it's inexpensive, it isn't good quality. My experience is that...

Looking forward to sharing my progress and ideas as well as learning from the rest of you. The goal is...
