Had some free time today so I put together my lift. Not
hard took about a hour to get it together and get the
parts car on it. Did it by myself.

1) going to paint it after the holidays - thinking Signal Orange (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smilie_pokal.gif)

2) A little better than the LE but still a POS

3) Actually the ramp it self is in 4 sections about 8' each
You can adjust the lenght of the ramps bolt them together
and place one end on the tall support held on by a long
rod and the other end has the lifting tube and a set a legs
that drop down to support the front of the lift. Its simple
and doesn't require power to lift. The bottom of the car is
about 30" off the ground with tires on it. Just right when
using a creeper.

I would love a nice 4 post lift but its not in the budget (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif)
I have never been a fan of working under cars on jack stands. I feel a little safer using this "lift" over jack stands.
