What's the best four post lift for the price?

[CJD Automotive]

When it comes to a lift, 2 or 4 post, the last thing I worry about is price. I work under them everyday, so I'm more concerned with what isn't going to fail. I only use American made Rotary Lifts, not the Revolution Series, as that is a Chinese line built to compete with the other Chinese lifts. There are a few video's on Youtube showing testing and failure of Chinese lifts.

There are a hundred different lifts out there to buy, but only one you. Choose a lift that is the safest, not the cheapest, and that will mean a non-Chinese lift.

When did Rotary switch the Revolution Series to being made in China? My Revolution 7 is over 10 years old, but was made in the USA

All Revolutions are Chinese made. Came out about 2007 or 2008 to compete with BendPak Chinese lifts. It's two different companies, but owned by the same parent. Rotary Lift and Rotary Revolution. I'm pretty sure the Revolution wasn't out 10 years ago, but could be wrong.

Had my Revolution 7 since at least 2006 and I know back then it was on Rotary Lift's Site - I bought it from my local Rotary Lift Rep

Checked over the weekend, my Revolution 7 was built in 2003 by Rotary Lift - USA. It was installed by my local Rotary Dealer.

Must have been before they spun-off Revolution and made them in China

I have a revolution rf9 for just over a year, I have a 110" ceiling and I can fit two cars on them as long as they are low, the hoist seems well built and sturdy, came with drip trays a jackstand tray and casters. I added a platform jack to it as well. I've ordered a second one too.

my Pantera buddies up front.. 4 Panteras, my
Bird and one mustang not in the picture

Visited the Rotary Lift booth during SEMA because I now need to buy a new lift for the shop space I rented out at Thunderhill. Asked about their 7000# lift and he stated it was USA built. SWEET.

That means is will be assembled in the US when you get done putting it together
