Car Lifts
Does anybody have the "skinny" on car lifts. that is the ups and downs, pros and cons, which is best, how hard is it to install (do I need someone to do it and who?). what goes wrong and how easy is it to fix?

There are more. They also include info on two posts as well.
Several of us have installed them in the last month alone. When you need details, ask away...
Good luck!!

There's some good info in the following thread that went around C5 Tech not too long ago:
Deciding between 4 post and 2 post lift...
Good luck with the decision.

lifts
depending on your garage space, the kwiklift is a neat little tool.
I take mine out in the driveway, and do just about anything on it. (well, almost !!! ) for those of you with kinky thoughts !!
just did a power steering change on my pick up from the bottom and it was a cakewalk.

Staw away from any import lifts on the market. Me being a Rotary distributor I'm going to say Rotary has the best lifts on the market and they are the most expensive. But you get what you pay for. I have been in the lift industry for almost 20 years and have seen lift companys come and go. It seems the one thing people overlook when buying a lift, is the company going to be around in 20 years or longer because lifts do break and parts are needed. Just my 2 cents
