Nice lift, if only my garage ceiling was taller I'd have one (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif)

Thanks everyone for your kind words! it will make reassembly of the teener so much easier and finally get to do it within my own garage - yay!
Mike: This lift is really unique and might be a good option for many others here as well. The "highlights" are detailed below - pretty cool lift that has only been on the market for a few months. 1) They come in three variations for lower ceiling heights: 8'10" - 9'10" - 12'6"!!! 2) The columns and base-plates are half size/footprint - I wanted maximum room to move around the lift. 3) The cylinder is located in the crossmember - not the column (allowing it to be so narrow. 4) There are four 3/8" cables - two per side. 5) Bi-metric arms; kind of a cross offering both symmetric and asymmetric benefits. 6) Double safety lock mechanisms (I like duplicity). 7) Probably MOST important it ANSI/ALI ALCTV certified! 8) Price is very reasonable - this one was $2700 - waaaaay less than the Rotary I was also considering! 9) The one downside is it is a 7K lift - my 1-ton truck is a no-go.
