      Although now I keep getting really pissed of with dust and leaves blowing under the door so I need a sealing strip
      I painted my floor as well recently, its great! Also have the leaves issue which is suddenly so much more annoying Ebay have various drop strips at reasonable prices.

          I have to say its one of the best bits of kit i have ever purchased.. One of those things that you wondered how you managed without it.

          A twin post would naturally be better... if you had the room. If you need to work on the sills the lifting plates get in the way but you can lower the car on to something if needs be to get the lift out of the way.

          It just saves so much time and i have made my self a small stool with wheels and you can happily roll about as you please...

            Cool, it looks great, I was just wondering how it was in reality.

            I can add it to the wish list

              This is an option here in the states, not sure if you can get them easily over there or not...2 post, 48" lift height, movable (flush-mount inserts in floor), quick disconnect hydraulic lines...

              Shop professional vehicle lifts, jacks, and automotive equipment from BendPak. Quality shop solutions for every budget.






              Add in a little CNC mill and lathe, and it is hard to leave the garage sometimes...



              Always can use more room, even with 27 X 34 ft garage, lol...
