I didn't know they couldn't go on those kind of lifts.. I feel sorry for the guy that found that out the hard way

we got it at an awesome price, only $1,254 which is only a temporary price for them then the guy said they will be going back up to $1,500. So we got a deal. Pretty much the cheapest youll ever find them
was that new and installed? did that include everything? hydraulics, yada yada...

how about bolting it to the floor? how deep do you have to sink them? I'm guessing they probably supplied hardened steel bolts.
I'm pretty surprised they were this inexpensive too. I don't have the clearance in my garage for one of those.....but I'm looking at a new garage!

you guys are going to have a blast installing the lift., just kidding. It's just so much a pain. Congrats on the deal though. It looks great.

Beats a cardboard on pavement, like all the back yard mechanics.lol

yea its gonna include all the installation and stuff but that it without shipping also because we have a flat bed to pick it up. And we will be installing it. We also have the drill to bolt it to the floor.
