Lift Me Up

[djunod]

4 of us in our local Corvette club want to each get a lift. We all have the same basic requirements:

1. be able to drive on it with a LOW vehicle
2. be able to drop a transmission
3. be able to remove the wheels

two of us also want to be able to store another vehicle underneath the other car.

We would like a discount for purchasing 4 from the same place.

Any recommendations?

Dave,

I just arranged a group purchase with Superior www.superlifts.com (http://www.superlifts.com) .If you call them (ask for Phil) and mention my name, Mark Kane, and the Corvette group purchase they'll let you in on the same deal and you'll save about $500 each. You get the SR7H lift, caster kit, aluminum ramps, 3 drip trays, oil change canister, jacking tray and delivery for $3,250. I ordered mine 3 weeks ago or so and should recieve it this week. I'll post pics once I get it set up. Hope this helps /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif

Djunod,
Are you wanting a two post design or four post design. I have both and can tell you the two post design is a much better mechanic tool than the other. Ita also a fantastic lift for undercarrage detail work and cleaning feature. The 4-post drive on design does not lend itself to this feature very well.
I have as many as three two posts lifts coming. There slightly used and I hope to have them here soon. They were recovered from a shop that had some fire damage and the insurance company bought the company out in full. These lifts were not damaged in the fire. I will be selling one of them if your interested. Thanks

I recomend Mohawk Lifts. I have 2 of them in my garage. One is a 4 post lift used for storage, (below and on top) and the other is a 2 post lift used for tinkering with the cars. There is enough room on the 4 post lift to drop a tranny but it is much easier to do so on the 2 post -- 4 prong lift. I have the number somewhere around here. I'll post it a little later.

I worry about using a 2 post lift on a unibody car such as my '68 Camaro.

I think I'm going to do the four post, so that I can safely store another car below it.

Thanks for all the info!
