Noble friendly lift

[steveobes]

As well as rebuilding my engine im also building my garage for my noble 8m x 4m
got all brickwork up and starting roof this weekend.
Iv been thinking of what type of lift to put in.
Due to the undertrays really need a lift that lifts wheels rather than a two post.
What i need is a small 4 post
Been looking on tintinet but all look a bit big.
Dont need to go full height.
Got 3m to ceiling
thanks

I can recommend this:



It's actually an hydraulic parking lift but you can order with a removable centre section for playing around. It is also only one lifting arm so takes up no significant space in the garage and you can raise it to whatever level you want.

If you are interested I can provide details and costs etc.

That looks interesting,as long as you can get to excess middle of car,that would be ideal.
Like the way it uses less space than 4 poster
As you know anything that lifts from chassis is not going to work cos of undertrays
Also could get two cars in garage if needed
Looks good,

I bought mine from here

I will glady share with you the cost I paid which was £5.5k but not sure how the prices will have moved as that was 2 years since and they are imported from Europe (Italy I believe).

The Euro will have strengthen since then so I suspect they will have increased and I also got a discount as they were shipping another over when I ordered so I didn't pay for shipping which effectively saved me the VAT at the time.

If you get a four-post, try to get one with jacking bridges - even better if it has rolling jacks. That way, you can raise the car off the wheels so you can do wheel swaps, brake work, etc...
