now its time to do the floors! :biggrin: Looks great I want a lift so bad...
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.
