I just started renting out a 1250sqft industrial space rather then messing with low ceilings and pissed off neighbors.

Curly, can I borrow your fiancee to ask permission?

It's only transferable if fluids are exchanged in the process.

No. Does it save time on a ton of common jobs? Absolutely. It takes me all of about 10 minutes to change four wheels and tires (and two front brake pads) now to get ready for the track.
The center section is entirely open, so no problem using it for working on transmission, clutch, exhaust, suspension, or the underside of the motor/ engine bay. For a value option, this one is hard to beat. https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1369927678 https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1369927730 https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-N...s800/photo.JPG |

Lol no. That was another $2300.
|
Man if industrial space like that wasn't so damn expensive around here I'd be all over it. Houston is exploding right now though, everything is getting crazy expensive.

Is it bolted down, or can you move it around? |
Still leaning towards an Ezcarlift. Too expensive for what they are (unpowered), but they're cheaper than the P6 by about $500, portable and leave the center open for access.
|
I'm still looking for a nice 2 post lift for the shop.
We need something that will handle at least 5-6 tons though. |
I've been considering this for awhile:
MaxJax Portable Two Post Lifting System by Dannmar It's expensive for only getting the car 4' off the ground, but it's better than jackstands and the ~ 2' of that bendpak. Plus it fits in a normal sized garage and rolls away for storage. Costco has them for $2k shipped (cheapest I can find): Dannmar MaxJax |
My problem with 2 post lifts is that my garage floor is crap. Can't bolt into it to secure the posts.
Been looking at the Atlas mid rise lift. This one: Auto Lift 6,000lb. Portable Mid-Rise Frame Lift Has open center, powered, no mounting requirements. Still can't get myself to pull the trigger on 2 grand just to save myself the effort of putting the vehicles up on stands. |

I've got this lift: Atlas 9KOH
I was able to pick it up, so no delivery charges. Was under $1800 including taxes, hydraulic fluid, and hammer drill bit. After using it for 6 months, I'm kicking myself for not getting one sooner. |
I want this when I get my own garage.
|
I wonder if that would fit in my 1 car garage...

How the hell did you find that for $1300? They're about $2200+ as far as my searches show. I'd be all over one for 1500 bucks.
