Hi all,
Looking for some info I didn't see discussed in the other threads that mentioned MaxJax.
For those that have the MaxJax installed, what spacing are you using for your 914. Spacing is typically measured from outside to outside of the floor plates.
Also are the arms extended or retracted with the 914?
What other vehicles have you had on the hoist without or without moving a column from the 914 position? Bonus points for other Porsche products . . . (Boxster?)
I place my posts at, I think, either 129 or 130 inches (cf. the owner's manual for the maximum allowable). That works great for the 914. The most difficult vehicle to fit on mine thus far is a Cayenne. It works great but the car has to be placed perfectly to reach the jack points (because they are inset from the edge of the chassis and they are farther apart front to back due to the size of the vehicle).
Just remembered, max is 130" but I had to put mine at 129" for the Cayenne.
Thanks for the replies, I don't think 130" is a maximum in the sense of safe operation, I think they are just saying that typically you would never put anything on a 6000# lift that was wide enough to require more than 130" spacing.
I was looking at 125" as a starting point for my install. Not sure what that would preclude me from fitting on the lift as well as wanting to make sure that would still accommodate the 914.
I spaced mine at 125" works for my 914, 911, and Scion Xb, I also have a Grand Cherokee and Dakota Quad Cab but have not used it with those two
Here's how I position the cars
