Tips for jacking up car?

I like that! I was looking at a four poster for my garage. But I like the scissor you have.

Modshack do you have a thread about that lift you have? If not can we get some more details on it? Been thinking about doing that for some time now. Thanks

It's a Bend-Pak MD6-XP. I've had it for about 8 years now. They are still available at about $1600 delivered. Nice quality vs the Chinese stuff. It has been flawless and very versatile. I've lifted lots of different cars with it and never an issue..One of the best investments I've ever made....

That lift is great and all but you can't really work on the bottom of the car because it blocks everything..

That's the only limitation, but really, centerline work is rare unless you're swapping transmissions. I've had this lift for 7-8 years now and used it on numerous FWD, RWD and AWD cars. It meets 98% of my needs.

Things have gone up a lot lately...I paid under $1500 delivered 7 years ago. A bunch of friends bought this lift 2 years ago for $1650....
