What ceiling height do you need with these? My garage only has 9' ceilings.

I am also in the market for one or two if the price is right, myself. I have seen two in person and the ones from Wichita (lifts Unlimited) so far look the best to me. they are $2400. I liked the looks of the latching levers and how they are failure proof. Roy Sinor here in Tulsa has a couple and they look pretty good to me.

I also have litature on one from Ft Worth that I can buy for $1850. I like that price better. I am planning a road trip soon to see one in person.


If enough of us on here want to buy one perhaps we could make a wholesale purchace and everybody could save $$$$ ???

I think that is some idiot that did that. From what I have seen of them they are pretty easy to see if they are not locking correctly. That looks like someone hit the post and knocked it out from under the car.
