I have a MaxJax lift in my hobby shop. When I had it installed (I went with pro installers), I had them put anchors in for two different widths. I've only ever used the narrow width, with my very narrow MG TD, but just recently I bought a very nice 1973 914 2.0 from a Porsche mechanic in Virginia. Today, I installed the post in the wide position, and it's just right for the 914! This photo is of the car in the highest lift position.
![]() I used the standard pads without the lift extensions, and added an ordinary hockey puck at each location to make sure the lift arms didn't touch the side skirts. I carefully aligned the pads and pucks under the four lift points - the round dimples with a hole in the center. Here are photos of front and rear points. ![]() ![]() I measured the distance between the front mounting bolt holes on the two posts, in case someone else is installing a MaxJax for 914 use. It was just shy of 119 inches in my setup. Here's a photo of that also, so you can see where I was measuring from. ![]() |

Those donuts aren't designed for lifting. They're attach points the factory used on the assembly line. You can buy the slotted rubber discs on Amazon. There are several styles and IIRC one from MaxxJax. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07RZQLW9G?ref=pp..._title&th=1
