An important consideration is foundation. If you don't have concrete footings poured already then a 4 post is probably a better option. IMO a 2 post requires a good thickness of concrete and supporting footing to be safe. My buddy has a 16,000lb 2 post lift in his home shop. Sometimes we work on 2.5ton trucks (Deuce and a halfs). The foundation was poured accordingly, though. I've seen shops with 2 post lifts where the concrete is cracked. When I see that I run from that shop. Proper anchoring is important, too. Do your homework.
I often see lifts for sale when shops close down. You can get a good deal on a used compressor and lift if you are patient and search for closing shops. _______________________________________________ Miatapower mailing list [email protected] http://list.miatapower.net/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/miatapower
