I've been fortunate to have a 4 post lift in my attached garage to really make the cleanup and maintenance of my cars a little (make that a lot!!��) easier. Those days of bench pressing a tranny for a clutch change laying on my back on a concrete floor are, as Ernie Harwell says...."loooong gone". When you look at the tools you acquire over time, this 4 post lift is the ticket and NOT that expensive. This one ran me unassembled, delivered to a local shop, $2,250.00 which included aluminum ramps, jack bridge, 3 drip trays. I chose the stock 110 voltage. Just plug in to any 20 amp circuit. It's rated to lift 7,000 lbs. Took my sons and I about 5 hours to assemble.
Here's a couple of pics of her with my last ride.

Nice, colour me green with envy.
