Be sure to post some pictures, before, during and after.
Ok I finished the installation last nite.
Here are a few pictures .
First off I had to lay out my radiant heat tubes, so I didn’t
Drill through them with the anchors. Then a trip to HD
was in order because I had every size hammer drill bit EXCEPT 3/4”
I then strapped the uprights to the forks on my tractor to stand them up .
Everything went pretty smoothe. I had to grab a few supplies from HD
To wire it up. And when I went to install the power, I found out the
Cord pulls I bought for the power drop Didn’t include the stupid lock nuts
( star washers ).DAMIT...
So I had to wait another day to finish.
Last nite all went good and I was able to lift my Camaro up!!

Are you using frame engaging lift arm adapters? They have a lip on the sides to keep the vehicle from sliding back and forth.
I use the frame engaging on my Camaro.. and for anything else with a frame. Pretty much eliminates the chance of the car sliding off the adapters that way.

Us Camaro guys gotta look out for each other. Tell us more about yours.

Yes they are the lipped ones, that’s what was supplied.i see from your avitar
You have a connection to ROTORY, mine is the economical version.
And from what I’ve seen, this is a high quality lift.
The CAMARO, its a 68rs drop top. Built on the pro tour platform.
Fab 9 rear end, full air ride suspension, Temec 5 speed.
Wilwood disk brakes, Chassis work ( Chris Alsons ) front stub
Rack n pinion steering. Power comes from a
383 stroker, Edelbrok heads, SS roller valve train,eagle I beam rods, forged crank, and a Momar fuel injection.
Parked next to it is my sons 70 we built. Purchased as a basket case on his 16th
We really turned it around, it currently runs all my old drive train,
327 mild build, m22 4 speed (originally an automatic ) 12 bolt posi, and complete exhaust system.
I do not have any good pictures on this device, I’ll post some later from my lap top.
