I’ve posted this in other forums and figured I’d post it here too…

Go to www.govdeals.com and search for 2 or 4 post lifts. They typically sell for $500-$1,000.

Id make sure theyre ALI Certified. Specially that these are heavy trucks

I agree. Here’s one in Minot, ND. I think it’ll support any LC.

I personally would go pick it up. However I’m sure you could probably find a hotshot trucker to pick it up for you and transport it.

Nice. I only have the Oil Change Dolly so far Looks like you have a pole barn too. Same as mine 3 bay 40X30' floor X 14' ceiling. I did the electrical myself with 220V for welding and the lift. Also did the insulation boarding and ceiling myself.

Nice! Mines 52x40 with pull through, front and back 24x14 doors on one end with 2 10x10 doors on the other side. Built it as a garage, wood shop and boat storage before I went insane with my LC.

Here is the wheel dolly on the tranny jack.

When I was in the Navy, we had the Auto Hobby Shops on-Base where they have work bays with lifts. $4 per hour for the lift use back then. So when I retired, I always wanted to get one to do my own maintenance. So with the help of my fellow aircraft mech, we installed one in the barn-garage. 12K Lbs Symmetric/Asymmetric 2 Post Lift. First pix, bleeding brakes with the wife assisting.

Nice setup - I'm jealous!

Not to nit pick, but you say "12K Lbs Symmetric/Asymmetric 2 Post Lift." but i see 10,000 lbs on the lift:

Am I missing something?
