. Was $1700 which sounds like a nice price for what you get. Course I would be doing the install myself which saves some $$. It's mostly so I can get my build moving quicker (long tubes, procharger, fuel system) but will be nice to get off my back on my oil changes in all my cars/trucks. Curious if anyone has this model or one similar and any thoughts on tips? I have a new garage I am building with a nice slab (with rebar) and already wired for 220v so I can just add a breaker and tie in. I preferred the 2 post so I have the most possible access.

My friend has this one and another friend has the one with the slightly heavier build. The other one has the cross member at the top but is slightly more expensive. If you plan on rolling a tranny jack or something like that around under, maybe the more expensive and slightly beefy lift is the winner.
I had this one installed last spring. Price included delivery and installation. Best $2500 I've ever spent. Changing oil in all of my cars standing up is priceless!
I used 4000 psi cement when I poured the floor in my new garage and poured that side of the garage 6" thick, because I knew a lift was going in. You want at least 3500 psi cement and
a minimum 4" thick.

looks good , I may be interested in buying one myself. If you have a chance, I would like to know your thoughts on the lift once you receive it and put it together. Thanks
If the car is too low you may have to raise car slightly to slide arms where you want them. Myself not a fan of the 2 post above ground. The posts always in the way.of the doors. Make sure to install padding to protect doors from contact. I would have experienced contractor install it just to be covered in case of mishaps. It's not hard, and I know how to install it. Technically I was never officially trained. In a mishap someone will ask what made you qualified to install your lift? I don't want that question.
Yup,Skirts don't help.Got to get started on a tapered piece of wood.Then build up to the 2x somethings.That might not clear skirts.Then,tapered piece,followed by 2x something,followed by 4x something on a rubber mat.So no slide

You must have that special no slide concrete?What's that called?Rubber mat x4 wheels to clear skirts.Plus 2k for lift.
No need to shine mufflers

I have a Rotary 9K 2-post lift. Most of the considerations have been covered here. It's good that (from your pictures) you are getting the triple-telescoping arms. My cable/hose run goes over the top; I suspect that the floor run will occasionally be inconvenient. My advice: let a pro do the installation. After seeing mine installed, I'm really glad I didn't attempt it myself. Positioning of course is critical; it needs to go farther forward in your bay than you might expect.
Getting an Atlas PV-10P 10,000 lb overhead 2 post lift installed tomorrow afternoon. The lift weighs in at 1875 lbs......more metal would seem to me to be stronger. Bought it from Greg Smith Equipment in Indy! Can't wait!
Wow what great input! Thank you all! I was a bit worried about clearance issues with my Z lowered but I can put some inclined ramps (make some or they sell them) for getting up just a bit for the jack points to slide under. I do have higher strength concrete not sure PSI will find out. Lots of great reviews on this model most seem to like it I will let everyone know how it turns out.
