QUOTE(Justinp71 @ May 23 2018, 12:46 PM)  Anyone buy the harbor freight car lift? Looks very similar to the bendpak, has good reviews too. https://www.harborfreight.com/automotive-mo...lift-91315.html I got one and have been pretty happy with it. I did have to make a ramp so I could clear the lift though. At the time, I wasn't sure how long I would be in the the house so I wanted a portable one and this one lifts it pretty high (granted I'm not very tall). But it is easy tor roll a chair underneath. If I knew I was going to stay a long time in the house, I'd have purchased the lift from Costco (Max jack? or something like that) I put the 2x4 on the ramp to stop me from rolling too far forward so i was centered on the lift. I wish the arms were longer though because I tried to use it on a minivan and was unsuccessful because one side had the exhaust that was interfering with one of the lift points. But it works fine for the 914, a prius, and my kids cars (Corolla and Civic). You will need to put install a end plug to HF lift, one of the reviews gave good advice that I used when picking and installing the electrical. |

I use a Quick Jack. Portable enough I can take to the track otherwise I leave it on the garage floor and park the 914 over it. If you remove the rubber pads it's very easy to drive over.

QUOTE(porsche-tom @ May 22 2018, 07:58 AM) the max jax looks like a good deal. is the shipping free to your house?(do they unload it for you? how was the install? MaxJack delivers to the end of your driveway and will get it off the back of the truck for an extra fee. From there, its up to you to get it into the garage. It is delivered with the columns bolted together along with the arms. As a package, I think it weighs about 700 lbs. I have a steep driveway, so MaxJack shipped the unit to the freight terminal and they loaded it into the back of my pickup. I unbolted the package in the truck and then hand unloaded it into the garage. I had to take the cylinders out of the columns to single handed get the columns out. They are about 200 lbs each empty. Here's a FAQ on this: https://www.maxjaxusa.com/customer-service |
