Hello folks!
I'm looking for advice and recommendations on a 2 post car lift with top only connection. Lift capacity 9-10,000 lbs for “medium” commercial usage, such as 2-3 car/week. I have seen a lot of them between $1750 to $2200, incl free shipping, mainly from Atlas , Triumph and Stratus. Used “name” brand vs new budget brand as above mentioned? Need one within the next week or so and are located in NJ. Open to opinions and recommendations. Thanks, dc |

Just remember you need significant concrete footings to support your 2 posts. If i remember right my 10K lb western required 2foot X 3 foot X 1 foot deep at the mounting points. the rest of the pad was 3 inches, but I had to dig out and rebar the mounting locations before I poured the slab
