Anyone with a 4 post Bendpak HD-9 parking the FGT on it ? What runway settings you have it on (narrow or wide) ? Anyone in So Cal I can have a look at their lift ? Thanks.

Here's where it is set. 76" outside. IDK for sure if that is narrow or wide. You can look up the spec as well as I can, but I believe it is as narrow as it can be set. I have that skinny Miata on the left, otherwise I would have set it a few inches wider.

EDIT: Looking over my post on the four post lift thread, this is indeed set narrow. The driver side ramp is adjustable. The passenger side is fixed (I think). You can set it between narrow and wide, but you need to drill holes to lock it in place (if you care about locking it in place...it's not like these things migrate on their own).

If you don't need the lift for vehicles narrower than the GT, then I would set it wide.

Wider setting works very well.

Thanks a lot Gents, I actually measured and mapped out the garage floor using tape, but wanted to make sure just in case the specs on paper are a little out of whack. The wide setting is a hair over 82" per spec, what is the distance between the inner LR tire edge to the inside edge of the left runway ? Looks like the rear tires "hang" a bit over the runway ramps, I suspect the wide setting will fix that ?
 
Yes. And my Lotus Elise fits the wide setting very well also.

Just for you, I put my ramp in the wide position this morning. :lol

Seems to be perfect for the GT.

Excellent and yes perfect. I appreciate the extra effort, time to pull the tape off my garage floor and pull the trigger, now then which color do I get :rofl
