Default What 2 post lift do you suggest? Rotary, Bendpak.............??

I need another lift.....

I currently have a Bendpak XPR 10a that has been great for years

I've noticed RPM trans, Randy at RaginRacin' and Fran down at Race Proven Motorsports in Delaware all using Rotary's

The Rotary's run about 3500/3700 and the Bendpak's can be had for 2800

What are you running for a 2 post?

Thanks very much

I installed the Eagle Products 9000 lb unit in this link. Have been using it for 2 years and no problems what so ever. They have a wide variety of 2 and 4 post units in various capacities. Performed the install my self in about 8 hours.

I've installed 3 of them so far, Chris(Stangkiller) bought for EG down in Vero Beach

Install is pretty fun

Never really seen the Eagle stuff

You can look at Rotary's economy line RPT10. Should be same $ as a BendPak but better built.

the Revolution's, that is the "Made in China" brand that Rotary offers

Bendpak has slowly moved production to China in the past few years

side by side the Bendpak is much beefier than the US Rotary's, BUT, I'm guessing the steel is of lesser quality

....just a guess here

Default Mohawk

I have a Mohawk A-7. American made and very solid. It's not cheap, but I know it's not going to have a failure (I hope).
