Shopping for a lift - Lateral-g Forums

Hey guy's,

Been checkin out car lifts (4-post drive on style) What brands do you have and what are your likes/dislikes or pro's/cons? I'm sure some of you have one and was wondering if you've been happy with it or disatisfied with any features/quality or what not.

Was looking at the Eagle brand and Autolifters.

Any help would be great or maybe name some other brands that may be worth checking out.

Thanks, Kurt

Kurt,

This one is really nice - http://www.revolutionlifts.com/four-post.asp A buddy has one at his house.

I have an Eagle copy from another company. Works good but if I had to do it again I would buy the revolution from Rotary.

one thing I would not have thought of is the width allowed on the lift. My Eagle has just enough width with the mirrors folded in to let a full size pickup on it. And according to that chart Eagle is one of the widest. Something you may want to check on as it's nice to be able to use the lift for more than just your car.

Jody,

I was looking at the widths on all the lifts I looked at. Specifically the drive thru width. Superlifts looks like one of the wider ones which is a bonus for my application.I'm going to keep checking all the features before I make any decisions. I just got a brochure from Eagle in the mail and I'm looking at it right now.

Thanks for the input,

Kurt
