Ordered a DirectLift Propark 8

[John510]

Just ordered a DirectLift pro park 8. For those of you that have one do you regret not buying the optional jack? I did not get that but now Im wondering if I am ever going to need it in case I want to swap wheels or something. .

If you're talking about the pro jack, that lifts the front or rear of the car off the 4 post lift, it's my favorite thing other than the lift itself. I would never go without it, as it makes it so much easier for brakes, removing wheels/tires, anything that involves getting the car off the lift.

Charley has one of those jacks too, and I'd guess he'd say the same.

The bridge jack in not necessary but it sure is convenient. Just be careful and watch your head. I hit my head on my jack about once a month. Don't pay what direct lift wants for the jack. Derrick Weaver sells it for $550.

I agree. It makes the lift a lot easier to use. Money well spent.

A must have for a 4 post lift. Works great.

I'm 6'5" I've had the jack for 10+ years and I've never hit my head on the jack.

thanks everyone. Looks like I will add the jack.

I have that center jack and consider it a must. Use it all the time!

Here's another addition to a four post lift that does not cost much but makes it so much better to work on the underside of the car.

A four post lift isn't very functional without a jack. Do yourself a favor and buy a 2 post.
