Default Christmas present for my TTiX Z06

Picked this max jax up from Danmar and got it installed a couple of weeks ago. This thing is great for my 8 foot ceiling garage. I plan to make some upgrades to my car and this will make it much easier on my 51 y/o bones. I highly recommend this lift if you have a low ceiling. Reasonably priced, and not hard to install. Mike

Here are the results!

Thanks guys....should of done this years ago. Because the vette's sit so low I can raise the max jax all the way up and just sit in my office chair and do what I got to do.

The C5 is very wide so i installed the max jax at its widest recommended width which is 135 inches measured from the back of the base plates. You have the option to install multiple anchors seeing how the posts are portable and very easy to move. You can roll the uprights out of the way if you need too.

I have a 4 post lift but now I'm looking for a 2 post that runs 110 volt

most are 220 and I don't want the expense of running the line

maxlift looks nice!

Did you verify the thickness of the concrete before you installed it ? I'm worried my floor is not thick enough.

Maxjax is 110 but keep in mind it is a mid lift...only goes up about 4ft.I only have a 8ft ceiling in my basement so it works perfect.

Nope...just rolled the dice. I figured I could could cut it out and pour some more if needed but my basement was 6 plus inches thick...you only need 4.5 inches(thats what she said)

Yep...sure is. It is a 01(obviously) speedway with mod red interior. This is my wifes daily driver...she loves this thing, monster cam and all. I got tired of coming home and finding my twin turbo z gone so i ran across this thing sitting in someones yard. It has a rebuilt title but runs and drives great. Its got AR long tubes, vara ram, LG g5x3 cam and head work...runs awesome after we had it tuned. Only has 48k now and we got it for a song...almost feel guilty for what we paid for it.

Great addition and a nice pair of cars. You should only feel guilty towards the rear tires on the white car
