I ordered a MaxJax 2 post lift on line and it was delivered last Wednesday. I spent time measuring and making sure it was in a place I could get the most use out of.
Here are some photos of the Lift in my garage.

Yes, it is bolted down in the concrete. I drilled the holes and drove the anchors that hold the lift. It works great. Love the lift. At the point i have it, it is in the middle position. It can go higher.

Whats really cool about it is that you can remove the bolts and wheel the post to the edge to get it out of the way.

I've had my MaxJax for about a year now and love it as well. I like how you extended the hydraulic hoses and mounted the pump. Where'd you get the extra length hose at?

Thanks

I bought 2 hoses, 10ft. long from Norther Tool. We have one here locally. Hoses already made and 2 female to female connections. I ran the hose thru the ceiling and down to the jacks. This eliminates the hoses on the floor and having the cart dolly for the pump on the floor.
