So,
How useful are the 5-6 foot scissor lifts versus the standard 2 post lifts.? I am about to buy a new one...they are the exact same price. The two poster does add , well, two posts to my shop...good or bad has yet to be determined. What are you views? Rich |

I got my 2 post used on craigslist for $700.00. It makes it's own space. You can always park 2 cars in that spot from then on, mine has a 914-6 up in the air and a real 914-6 GT parked under it tonight.
Most of the time you're only working on one end of a car so if you have something up on the lift and you need to work on another broken turd you can just pull the correct end of car #2 halfway into the stall and act normally unless you're 6'20". Then you have other problems, like the inability to access dashes, for instance. |
