I was limiting myself on who to buy a lift from because I needed to find somebody local to build it. I have an engine lift and 2 boys that help me with the heavy stuff. </div></div>

Go for it.

I have one like this and it works fine. My only gripe is with 110 volt motor it takes 2 minutes to lift all the way. I also have a 220 volt lift that takes 40 seconds.

There just isn't enough volume in those 110v power units. I've never wired one up for 220v, but I know they are a dual voltage motor, so you can. Is that what you mean?

I have installed a 2.5hp 220v power supply for a 2 post lift on one of those hobby 4 post lifts, and it really performed well!
