UP UP and AWAAAAYYY (MaxJax)

[PowerDubs]

Rained today so I couldn't mow.. spent the afternoon finishing up the install of my lift.

Currently with the garage door open I can get 3 feet of lift on this car. Once I yank the current opener and install a sidewinder I can go up about another 1.5 feet before I kiss sheetrock with the door closed.

PowerDubs,

Looks great, how far a part are the posts? Is it a tight fix to get out of the car? Any problems with the concrete, how thick was your?

Posts are 10 feet apart from the back of the bottom plate. Concrete drilled to 5-5.5 before it went through.

Getting out of the car is fine. Funny thing is that I went a little wider at the 120.. but raising the car I see I could have easily went another 10 inches overall and still hit my jack points no problem. (another 5 inch each side)

Is that the only car you will be lifting? I have an 08 STI and the wife's Mazda5. Once the lift comes I'll do a mock placement but I'm thinking about 120-125" for the first set up and 125-130" for the second. Looks great !!!!

I went 135" for my C6 corvette without extending the arms. Seems like a great system.

I haven't tried yet...but I think I can put both atv adaptors on and lift up my lawnmower F/R to make changing the blade quick and easy.

I'll let you know...

nice lift...

question, how far is the post away from the wall? do you have enough space to change tires?

Can you store a car on the lift? I want to put my toys under the lift(Quad and Scooter)

 

[PowerDubs]

If your ceiling is high enough and your toys are low enough.. sure. Raise the car..slide in the safety bars and lower the car onto the bars. Done.

Is it OK to put the posts beyond the 130"? I have "dry fit" my Z06 and it just barely fits at 130"...I think another 5 or 10 would be great!
