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 decided on the EZcarlift (see photo below), I have limited space in my garage and only work on my own cars. I need the portability. I considered the BendPak but moving it around would be difficult and delivery would be a nightmare, (requires a forklift).
Plenty of room between the lift supports. Only difficulty I see is the 4 cyl motor mount bar needs to be removed before dropping the engine, (see image below). |
