    Default 4 post lift installed....Merry Christmas to me

    Finally got the Backyard buddy lift delivered and installed (8 weeks to make it). The installation guys did it on Christmas eve.

    I'm definately getting a second one. I was waiting to get the first one to make sure the garage would not be too compacted with 2. Looks like it will be just fine on space (when I clean out those boxes and junk on the right).

    Congrats! I have a pair of BB lifts as well. They're the best and well worth the $$ IMHO.

    Just had a Direct Lift ProPark Plus installed in my garage. I'm 6'4" so the additional lift height makes it easy to work under cars. I'm definitely thinking of getting a 2nd one.

    Can you tell us your ceiling height?

    I've got two Backyard Buddy lifts as well jbsteven. They were NOT the cheapest lift, just the most safe underneath. I am not comfortable with the Chinese lift my friend has; it wobbles all over when in the air -- not a very safe feeling. He wants to bolt it to the floor to make it more stable -- SHOULD HAVE BOUGHT A BYB. They will survive an earthquake without being bolted to the floor, so the casters that I have with them are actually usable. Great choice -- you will never regret it.
