Over on the Garage Journal site I was reading a topic where someone was asking questions about a 4 post lift. Somewhere in the replies another person posted photos of a 9000 pound, double wide, 2 car lift.   :o   Never saw one until then & thought it was pretty cool & wanted to show it here.   :cheers:

That's one of the options just like casters, jack supports & extra drip trays.

I would hate for something to happen and it fall on the cars under it. Are there safety pins on the lift to prevent that?

Yes, there are safety locks on all newer lifts.  That is the banging sound you hear every 5 seconds or so.

yes they have progressive  locks as the lift goes up , you have to pull the pins before the lift will come back down

The lift is a Bend-Pak. I've seen enough of their equipment in the industrial/manufacturing shops where I've worked that I would trust anything they make. However, as previously mentioned, the prices are nothing to sneeze at...

Yeah, I remember the thread you had trying to figure out & find a lift that would work.   ::) 

Friend of mine wants a lift, I was thinking if I get rid of some projects I won't need two & offer to trade one for a Unimog he's got & thinking of selling.   :D

Of course that's a project so I'd need another lift.   :lol:
