2 post lift....

These are getting a bit tempting and would go nice in the garage...

got to be a bargain at that price ??...

Could just see the Griff on it (with a new toy under it!)

You'll have to update us once you've had a look... my floor is good for a 2 post so should be fine... for me, the attraction has to be that I can get 'another' car under the first one so other types of lifts are of little interest (unless its a real cheap 4 post)... would be good to hear from someone who has one of these

Hi Pete... I've got about 2.7 meters so would not be able to stand under the car.. but could do a chair on castors type of device.... but would at least enable another car to go under the first one ... will have a look at the links above cheers.. John

the original one i posted is 2740mm so would fit inbetween the rafters so maybe the best option... you can't beat getting the right tool for the job!.. there is a milling machine going at work right now!.. if I only had the room (and 3 phase )

I need one!.. was looking at your pic before.. the post don't look that high so would be a good fit for my garage..

[TVR Beaver]

they do sound good.. would have to test drill my base to see how thick it is.. but then I could also tie the uprights into the rafters just to be 100%... yes, shorter the better for me

OK.. .I've just put in a 1 tonne crane at work with a pad stone and re-bar... 8 holes around a 1 meter base so I know what you mean about being accurate

£800 should get you the milling machine ....
