I've scanned through the old posts, but couldn't find the info I was looking for.
I might be in the market to get one of those mid-rise lifts. I'm looking for the one that a couple people have said was great for the 914. Low enough to get the car on, and would rise high enough, and had enough room under the car to enable an engine drop/install. I'd love to get some information on this one. A new lift for the garage might be in my immediate future! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) Then I can REALLY get some work done...

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/slap.gif) On a serious note......Be forewarned about buying lifts! When they advertise the height of the lift it's the total height off the ground and they will include all the pads as part of that. You need to subtract the fully retracted height to get the actual "lift". Yeah, try to get that info For instance they may advertise a 42" height but on the ground it is 6" so the actual "lift" is only 36". Pay attention! I actually had to call some manufactures to get the "real" numbers. Some of the lifts have large rubber truck pads included. They add that as part of the "height" After learning this lesson the hard way, I bought the Bend Pack. Paid more but have never regretted it. I love it!!!  |
