How much clearance do you require for that particular lift? The ceiling height does not appear to be too high but it might just be an optical illusion.

Hope that it works well for your needs. Looks like a study unit.

I want one for mothers day .

Black03 Z06; I have 10ft 7 inch ceiling in the garage. It is 74 inches to the top of the runways in the highest lock setting, plus you need a couple inches to lift it to clear the safety locks in order to let it down.

There are 10 lock positions the lift can be set in.

I can get the cars up to the highest lock position, but it it close. I had to remove the light bulb from the ceiling light above the lift.

Thanks very much for the measurement BF. Great addition for you.

How much you want for that light bulb if you are not using it? LOL

Hey BF....
It's hard to tell in the pic....
Did you have to lift the overhead door tracks?
Or do you have to lower the hoist before opening the door?

Cool...once you have a lift you wonder why you waited so long......from oil changes to detailing to extra storage they are money well spent

 

[Bearly Flying]

Nascar 03; I went to a side mount Door opener and I did lift the tracks to help put more weight on the door opener cables. I limited the door travel to less than full open and set the lift so the door can't hit the vehicles.

J.P. Ya, already been using it quite a bit. All the neighbors have been hinting already.

BF...thanx for the mod info.

This is all good info as I'm looking for a lift/hoist for my garage for next year.

I know BF did his homework before deciding to go with the LiftKing hoist. For the money it seems to be a very good one..............probably be the one I would go with...........then again BF is only two blocks away..........LOL!!

If only the ceiling in my garage was higher Good for you, yours is ok

Nice Lift BF! The garage looks fantastic with all those beautiful rides in there!

Thanks Guy's. I have been using it a lot, ( probably because it's a new toy) but there are several things I have attended to that never would have gotten done without having it.

A few of my muffler clamps had excess threads beyond the nuts, a quick grind with a zip disc tidied it up. Not likely if I was crawling under it on jack stands.

Cleaning the wheels is a non issue now.( Saves the old back)

Mufflers are nice and shiny now, ( so Somebuddy can get off my back)

the lifts are really a dream come true for us old "backyard guys". i can't wait till i start outfitting my shop.
