Can they be added? For those who need to change tires it would be a great addition!

J’ai un pont 4 colonnes mais je n’ai pas l’option… en principe c’est juste un pont de parking.
en dessous tu peux ajouter cela mais il y a la place pour un cric sous la voiture comme si tu étais à l’extérieur

High quality.

Quick question: does it still fit if you fold the mirrors in? I noticed a review on the OEM version on Suncoast with someone complaining that the material is too tight and does not allow enough room to have the mirrors fold in while still fully covering the whole car. Apparently, it almost rips the fabric around the mirrors and will not allow the cover to be tucked under the front lip. I can always store it with mirrors out, but by default, I plan to have the mirrors fold in once parked and locked, so it would be a small pain to always uncheck that box when I want to put a cover on it.

Nah he said it's just a storage place but you could place a jack underneath if needed...

Merci Dan006

That's what the drip trays are for but, yea, I'm going to need more of them. Old lift came with 3 drip trays whereas the new lift came with 4 for each side; however, these are a lot smaller (i.e., not as long) so they don't provide quite enough coverage.

Installation completed.

Two of her stablemates ready to go up (first time)!

Disappearing act.

Crappy pic with crappy (regular) garage lighting (it's basically impossible to get a decent pic of all four in there since the lift takes up the entire garage).

Crappy pic with nice LED lighting on the runways.
So, to get a car from top floor out you have to move both cars on bottom floor as it a single 4 post lift but for 2 cars each floor, right? What made you choose this one? Looks very sturdy for sure. But looks you also need to attach long ramps to get on the lift a the edge/step is pretty high too. I assume you picked this one as it looks super strong.

Unfortunately no - there's no provision for such an addition. Prob need a single post or two-post lift for that.

Right, you have to move both cars out from underneath. My original plan (many years ago) was to add a second, single car, 4 post lift on the left side of the garage to go with the one I've had on the right side since late 2017. I didn't want to have to move two cars out from underneath just to get one down from the top. But my garage is so narrow that there simply isn't enough width to add a second, single car, lift. So this was really the only option if I wanted to get 4 cars in the garage. It's not a huge deal to move two cars out of the way plus now we don't have any posts in the middle of the garage. Which is esp nice since the old lift had its motor mounted on the outside of the left front post so you had to bend your body around it when walking between the cars. So I guess it's a trade-off - you have to move two cars but you don't have any posts in the middle of the garage.

Yea, I chose this one because it's a well known brand and it looks super sturdy. It has a better locking mechanism than my old one and it has square posts (plus a nice paint job!). I only ever put my M2 up on the old lift once - it was pretty flimsy by comparison so I wasn't 100% comfortable with the M2 up there. But it was sufficient for the Miata and the GTI and served me well for over 6 years. The ramps for the new lift are 4' long and they're aluminum - it's only about 4.5" rise to get up on the new lift - not bad at all (the 911 should be fine getting up there too). Old lift had 3' ramps with about 4.75" rise - and they were steel so they were roughly twice as heavy.
