A have a few 2 post lifts but here is my favorite picture of my 4 post.

 

[gordyy]

Not what you guys normally lift did a little modification to mine so I can work on my tractors and the quads easily

 

[shopnut]

I installed my first lift in the Asylum this spring but forgot to post in this thread. It's a Bendpak HD-9XW in black.

Parts all laid out ready to go together:

Putting it together by myself with the help of the jib crane:

Some finished shots with the old Chevelle and the new Avalanche

A shot from above:

Custom twin reservoir air bottle system so I don't need to hook up to shop air to release the locks:

Very nice. I have a HD9-STX and was thinking about the air bottle system. It seems expensive for what it does. Is yours from BP?

 

[shopnut]

Thanks Jimmie Jam. I waited waaaaaay too long for this lift. Hopefully you are enjoying yours too.

I expanded on what BP offers and built the air system myself. This link should drop you in my build thread where I explain it all:

If you don't have time to jump over there, this should give you a quick overview:

(And yes, I probably overdid it a bit, but I have a tendency to do that sometimes )

Haven't built the floor plates to cover the rest of the pit yet, but this was yesterday:







Yep, very happy with that, that should do it!

[FatFenderBowTie]

Here's my lift between my lift...

 

[600SL]

My 4 post lift in CT. Soon to be moved in to my new Garage in NC. Perhaps a 2 post will be along side it.

 

[AndrewnTX]

A couple of pics of the day my BendPak HD-9 got installed. Many measurements, drawings, layouts and calculations of will it fit, or will it hit... the truck squeezed through just fine and tucks into the vaulted ceiling with inches to spare!

 

[shellback]

Silverplate: What's your ceiling height? Did you remove ceiling dry-wall? Looks awesome! Someday, someday....

 

[Coopduc]

My DY-QJY 3.0S

 

[ekraft84]

That came out great! Very nice.

 

[abstamaria]

Let me show off my lift in use.

 

[don long]

I have 4 working lifts in and around my shop
The first one is more like a work bench that is adjustable

The 2nd one is for project storage as well as undercarriage work

The 3rd one is a light pull frame machine that I use for a work bench and a mid lift for doing body work, It will raise 7' in the air

The 4th is my dirty lift for preasure washing / changing engines and the like

 

[Aquaticbob]

Also have another 4 post that is direct drive on from the outside that isn't pictured. One XPR 10, 3 XPR-10's, 2 HD-9St's with RJ-45s for each

 

[Randy Forbes]

Some very nice__working__shops!

Now with just two (2) 2-post lifts, I feel so inadequate; must be lift-envy

To be fair my shop is a commercial shop. It's a do it yourself shop, so anyone can use my lifts

I am wondering how you center the car on that thing? Even if there is clearance for the car pictured after the junk behind it is removed. That is a bad install with serious restrictions vehicle wise forget trucks go karts will not be a problem

 

[HD FLHX]

My mid-raise 6,000lb Atlas. I do more paint and body than mechanical so this type of lift is way better for my application.


Plus I can use it as a frame table

 

[joseph.a.owens.9]

Global hoist company 8000 lb lift made in long beach California.

 

[joseph.a.owens.9]

Will put pics up of final paint job

 

[Sterlingmichaels]

What model Direct Lift did you purchase? Thanks...Mike

Can you please tell me what you are using for the spacers at the bottom of the legs of your lift towards the front of the garage? Are they metal or some sort of nylon plastic?
Thanks

If the thin ones are too thick, make a few out of tin roof flashing.

 

[RPFletcher2]

How high is your ceiling?

I had to cut the posts to make the lift fit. ceiling is around 8.5ft.

 

[rclassic]

I should have done this 15 yrs.ago

Does your lift move at all on the Risers?

I was thinking of using a Rubber Stall Mat under mine. Cut to the same size?
