I can say only but great things for the new red/white/blue backyard buddy, and you can get the slider jack option for it like charlie shows in the pics. none of the purchase price goes to china either.

The sliding jacks are right at 500.00 and work great. They are on Ebay.. The width is adjustable for different size lifts.

I have a Direct Lift that I installed in my shop - has the arms. Works great, good price (little less than $2k). Bought from Greg Smith Equipment; got mine in DE, but Greg Smith has a few different outlets. Money well spent.

FYI - pretty sure all are made in China. Assembly instructions were a joke; I've seen more detailed instructions on assembling a 3 legged stool. Direct Lift and other other brand (forget which one) are the best bang for the buck.
