Susan and I are looking to buy a 2-post style car lift. My
understanding is there are two types of lifts, hydraulic cylinder
lifts and electric motor/chain lifts.
Are there any advantages or disadvantages to either type? So far
what appears to be the best deal or bang for the buck is one from
Autolifters ( http://www.autolifters.com ), which is the hydraulic
cylinder type.
They have a special on right now with free shipping through the
end of November and a free set of truck extenders for use on
vehicles with running boards (like my 51 dodge truck!).
If any of you have experience with 2 post lifts we sure would like
to hear what you have to say. Oh yeah, the main reason for
choosing a 2 post over a 4 post model is the ability of being able
to change wheels/tires on a 2 post lift.
Thanks!
