An uplifting experience

Just thought I'd share some pictures of my latest project. I've installed a two post lift in my garage and lifted the NSX for the first time yesterday. What a great thing to have. I've tested it with my 5,800lbs Tahoe and it did not even moan. The NSX is like a walk in the park. Garage is a work in progress.

Updated picture. It's working out very well.

Your setup looks great. What kind of lifts are those and how wide does your garage have to be to accomodate 2 lifts? Can you fit a SUV underneath? Thanks.

These lifts are no longer made. They were made by a steel company in Los Angeles -- the company's owner wanted some so he got in the business for a time.

Mine are not two lifts -- it is one lift (six legs) with two car platforms. The two platforms operate independently.

These lifts are completely adjustable in width (7 ft to 10 ft between legs side to side -- mine are 9') and will lift high enough to put an SUV underneath if you have the ceiling height. I had mine set high enough that I could walk under them without ducking my head (6'4")... they can go up another 9" if there is enough ceiling height.

I chose them because they are made of really meaty steel beams (1/4" thick) -- not simple rolled steal -- and are three times the weight of the average lift. After all, I DO live in earthquake country!

That's really cool. One contiguous lift as opposed to two separate ones seems like a real space saver. I wonder if some other company still makes something like that. And can't go wrong with the extra strength.
