Andrew - check out www.geusa.com - that's where I bought my Bend-Pak XP-10AC
a few years ago, when they had a sale. They do show a low ceiling lift that
still requires 113" clearance for the posts. Less than that, you may be
looking at a 4-post or something like that.

What are my options with a ceiling ht. of 100 inches?? The garage has a
flat roof and rafters are spaced at 16". Width is 137".

Even with a 12 ft clearance, I have to watch out for lifting my M-B with

hood can "fit" between the trusses a bit when fully raised.
Of course, one could lower the hood, but that would take forethought and
patience...
