Guys, looking to buy a second lift for the garage and have contacted Rotary lift company about their Revolution lifts. They have a wider version with extended ramps, is this the one that seems to work best, or does anyone else have recommendations? My older lift company "AUTOLIFTERS" is no longer in business.

I'm adding another lift and going with Rotary based upon the recommendations of Forum members.

In reference to Tom's post above..

I detailed for the person organizing the buy, in Michigan, and saw these lifts first hand. They are really nice pieces of equipment. Had the drip pans and all. If I were in the market, I'd be in on that deal...

where are the lifts made?

In the market for a lift, but not interested if made in China.

One of the recommended lifts from the Forum was the Bendpak HD-9.

Bought that one - like it. It is nice and wide (@109" between posts with adjustable ramps) so you don't need to "thread the needle" when trying to get on it.

Available in both 110 and 220 volt. The 110 is a little slower, but works fine since I am not in a hurry :wink

When you order your lift, ask if they have the light weight Aluminum drive on ramps.
And if they do spend a couple of $ and get them.

Your back will appreciate it.

I also ordered a tranny jack and roll about oil change equipment. Free freight.

The under car drip trays are nice to have. Get a couple of extra ones.

Guys, thanks for the input, looks like I am leaning towards the Bend pak lift at less than 3K delivered.

I have a Benpak hd-9 with 2 rj-45 rolling jacks. The rolling jacks make thinks a lot easier anytime you want the wheels of the "ground."

Hd-9

I just installed the HD-9 and have the rolling jack as well, considering getting another rolling jack to have all four off the floor. I too was concerned about the Chines made ones.

Are you guys talking about the jack tray, when you refer to rolling jacks? Also, did you get the extended ramps 48" or do the standard 36" work?

I have the 36" light weight aluminum ramps and they work great. The jack tray is for placing a separate jack on it, which can be a tight fit. The rolling jack is low profile, works on compressed air and the GT will clear it. I leave it on all the time.
