Friend of mine send my the link to this site, no affiliation, if I was about to buy a lift, this would be the one. http://www.maxjaxusa.com/

I did contact them and was refered to the local (British Columbia) sales rep, he is in the process of getting the brochure put together with pricing and technical info. Will post when I have more info.

Thanks! I doubt it's in my budget for this year, but it's good to know. I really like the design. Much better than anything else I've seen out there. And with 45" of clearance, you could fit a second car underneath...

Maybe when time comes we could get a group buy going.

There is a group buy on Garage Journal. $1500 delivered. See:

I like the fact that the video on the site uses a 911.

I checked the FAQ, will this really fit under an 8-foot ceiling?

Very cool! Thanks for the link!

Do you really think that bad boy is safe?

There's been some discussion about this on the Canada board as well as the Corvette Forum. I think the main issue is that many garage floors slope towards the front to aid drainage. This could be an issue if the design requires a perfectly flat floor. Any lift can be shimmed - but I don't know how/if shimming will reduce safety of the lift.

I'd weld a cross member across the top which would attach to the ceiling.

Per most codes, the standard slope for a garage floor is 1" over 12 ft. So, you could be looking at a .5" elevation difference between the two jack pad locations. Honestly, I doubt that would matter, but you could always put a thicker jack pad on the rear arms.

It would seem far safer than the exercise we go through to put the front of the car up on jack stands!

I guess I worry about the anchors in the floor. Everything relies on them.

Yikes!
