I have an Eagle 4 post lift. Exhaust systems are a breeze because
everything is exposed; would be more difficult with the 2-post. I use
scissors and bottle jacks strategically placed on the ramps and
sometimes on 2x6 wood or on a special steel "sawhorse" I built to lift
and support cars for driveline and suspension work. this worked out
very well for dropping the axle on my Sprite for a spring change. For
my use, I don't think a 2-post would be more versatile.
Tire changes are easy enough with my floor jacks and jack stands if
necessary. When the lift is clear, I love it for an oil change.
