The guy I used to restore Alfalfas for has closed his shop and offerd me a good deal on his lift. It is now in service (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) Yet another step in the right direction I hope. Scraping by isn't fun, but it does seem to pay off every once in a while (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

Yep it's a HH 7000 pd max.load. So, short of my truck, or maybe Chrysler; it should do anything I need. Cal me a freak or geek, but it's kind of cool as I actually have a long history with this particular one too. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wub.gif)

Good on ya mate, if you're in the biz you have to have one, saves your body. I still think I was a dumbass for not having one sooner.

My 7000lbs AAMCO will lift a full size P/U no problem, it just won't lift a dually or a full size van that's fully loaded. A good used built in USA lift is hands down better than the cheap china lifts.
Good score.

If your customers don't thank you, your back, knees and shoulders will. . .

Congrats on the purchase!! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/aktion035.gif)

Since you're in the business, a lift will more than pay for itself in short order due to increase productivity. It literally costs money not having a lift IMHO.

Great for axle/brake work and dropping engines. Love my 4 post for storing stuff, lifting engines, and loading my pickup. Can wheel rental equip like aerators off the p/up onto the lift then onto the ground!

Now you can service Evils vehicles everytime he arrives !

The older you get, the more you appreciate lifting the car, (IMG:style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif) rather than crawling under it. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif)
