Decided on EZ Car Lift., Confirming configuration... Options

Where did you buy it ?

You can find them on Amazon as listed above, I got my from Home Depot, it was in stock same slightly less of a price, like Pennys, but had it the same day. And used it with in 20 minutes of it being in my hands. Got it 10 years ago so delivery options out to my area where not as robust as they are now.

One other thing I have found over the years. Your adapter makes a huge difference in the quality of the experience.

I grabbed an adapter for a 3/8" deep socket from Harbor Freight, and with the old 1/2" 800 RPM drill, it was fine slight vibration. Chucked it into the 2500 RPM drill and it felt like I was driving at 70 with four flat unbalanced tires. I replaced it with one from a better know brand. And did not have the same issue. So I stuck with it. That drill, deep socket, and adapter are a dedicated tool for that operation. Sits right next to the lift all the time. 10 years of loyal service, out of the drill, and still going strong.

If you call EZCarLift they(Boytcho) will go over all your cars and let you know the adapters you need, and the cars in your fleet you can lift with the lift.

Only thing currently in my fleet I can not lift is the X5M, 750i, and the Silverado. LOL that leaves a 914-6 which is on it, and the Boxster.

If he would build one that would lift say 7K I would be first in line. I like the lift that much, and have used several over the years and own a competitors right now that used Hydraulics, weights more, is more obstructed, lifts close to parallel but not quite, have hoses to have to deal with. A pump that has to be mounted flat, so it sits on the floor all the time. List goes on and on. That lift would be sold in a NY minute, and a EZ-Truck Lift purchased the very next. Might have my trigger finger ready to click when lift was picked up.

EZ-Truck Lift I like it, see Boytcho (the inventor) I gave you the marketing, heck I will even bounce the design idea I have in my head to make it work.

Heck I would like a setup with then narrow braces to build a lift that would go to the deck of a pickup truck. That way you can safely unload larger items with out cranes, a loader, forklift etc. I don't mind lifting large loads up in the sky, but doing it with out proper gear, is a pain. And can kill you!

Just reworked 64' crossbars so they will fit under 914 either way. Helps when I have a Bridgeport EZ Trak Milling Machine!
