I'm going to be ordering my lift for the new shop at the end of the week, found info on a few vendors to stay away from. Anyone know a good vendor?
No need to talk about kinds of lifts....thats been done....read most of them. Already decided on the lift I'm buying, just looking for a good vendor, for obviously a good price, and cheap or free shipping... but most important for me is after sale support, if I have a problem, or need a replacement part I don't want to have to call china, or have the company have gone out of business. This is the lift I'm getting, Dannmar Admiral 9000X. Don't have the height for a full 2 post, but this one will lift high enough for me to walk under, drop engines, and work for vehicles other than 914s. So if you've had a good experience with or just know of a good vendor I'd appreciate hearing about it. Thanks, Jeff |

OK well here it is, went on the trailer without to much trouble, got some car dollies under it and winched it on with the electric winch lennie (lennies914) gave me a while back for picking up his project car and taking it to his shop. Thanks lennie if your out there...worked great.
In the Shop Already in use, needed to do a brake job on the work truck. Iknow Iknow....it is exactly what I said I didn't want....but it was cheap...and I could pick it up today. So the plan is keep looking for a good deal on a two post, still have $2K left in my lift budget, and then I can either sell this one, or just keep it and have two (IMG:style_emoticons/default/happy11.gif) Sold my diesel work truck and some how managed to talk my wife into using ALL the money to finish the shop, buy a lift,(or two) and if there's any left start working on the Suby car (IMG:style_emoticons/default/w00t.gif) How I got her to agree to that still baffles me.....but I'm running with it....before she changes her mind. Guess I got a brake job to go do! Jeff |
