Go to this site and look around. They have different sections like we have here and also do a search for lifts. The subject comes up all the time. There is also a section on product reviews that will have some info. Good luck.

Hey Mike,

Too bad you have such whiney neighbors. A lift in a garage on your own property seems kosher to me.

Anyone have pictures of cars stacked in a garage with a 9' ceiling?

two cars and stacking all comes down to ceiling height and where the safty catch's on the lift are. For me with my 10" 10" ceiling i'm can barely clear the mustang going underneath. The 914 will get to the second highest safty catch, but it's very close, since on my model you have to go past the catch's fold down the saftey arms, and then lower back a few inches untill it's resting on the arms. I've only got maybe 4-6 inches from the targa bar of the 914 to ceiling at that point.

I had the luxury of percise measuments on the actual lift before I bought it, and it paid off. I would suggest asking any seller about the measurments of safty catch's and make some good measurments of the cars you plan on parking.
