Group Buy on Revolution 4-Post Lifts
X-Auto Products having its 2nd annual Summer Sale on the Revolution 4-Post Lift by Rotary. Rotary is the world leader in commercial & industrial automotive lifts. No one builds a stronger, safer and more durable lift for the automotive enthusiast. If you've been wanting a lift for your garage, then now is the time to consider placing an order.
NO OTHER LIFT MANUFACTURER builds as much quality into a lift. All Revolution Lifts are built to meet the requirements of the Automotive Lift Institute. Each design is tested by the ETL, an OSHA-designated nationally recognized testing laboratory, to ensure compliance with ANSI standards ALCTB-1998 and UL Standard 201. In fact, each lift comes with its own certification label to ensure you that your lift is up to the job. The 4-Post Lifts are rated for up to 7,000 pounds, have 110v or 220v motors, and come in a choice of four colors.
Lift Models & Pricing -
There are two models (standard and XLT) and two power choices (110V & 220V). Our Summer Sale pricing is $2795 for the standard lift and $2995 for the XLT model. There is no difference in price for either the 110V & the 220V motor. Also, the accessories are priced lower than last year and are as follows:
Drip Pan Kit (2 pans) - $115
Drive-Thru Ramp Kit - $125
Caster Kit - $395
Low Ground Clearance Ramps - $145
Jack Tray (jacks not included) - $90
Solid-Top Decking - $650 for standard, $775 for XLT
Shim & Bolt Kit - $40
THINGS TO CONSIDER
Ceiling Height -
In order to ensure that you have adequate room for a 4-Post lift, you need to consider the following parameters:
A - the height of the car you will store on top of the lift (consider using the tallest car you have just in case),
B - the height of the car you will store on the bottom (consider using the second tallest car you have just in case),
C - the height of the lift runways the upper car will rest on - use 5 inches,
D - the MINIMUM distance between the garage floor and the LOWEST obstruction that the upper car may interfere with (such as garage door tracks, a garage door opener, lighting, shelving, etc.).
When calculating your ceiling height, simply add A+B+C, then add another 6 inches to allow for the lift to be raised high enough so you can safely lower the lift back down to engage the locking mechanisms. If the total of A+B+C+ 6 inches is less than D, then you have enough ceiling height to accommodate a 4-Post lift with the vehicles you've used for establishing the above parameters.
Delivery -
Although the shipping charges will get the lift delivered to your house if you like, you will likely be far better off to have it delivered to an interim receiving facility with the appropriate loading docks and equipment. This is due to the fact that the shipping weight of a 4-Post lift is about 2100 pounds, and it will arrive at your house awaiting a forklift to get it off the truck. The solution is for you to use a trailer to pick up your lift at the receiving facility where their forklift can properly load the container onto your trailer. Then, it is a fairly easy task to unpack the lift components and move them into your garage for assembly after you arrive home.
Shipping charges are 6% of the complete order to any address in the continental United States. More information about the designs, specifications and other details of these Revolution Lifts can be found at:

Or, as always, please feel free to call us 800-559-1192 to discuss things in detail. Thank you very much.
Best Regards,
Barry

how much more clearance do you need?
the manufacturer suggests adding up to two inches of steel plating under each column when you install the lift. this will give you 78 inches of clearance. however, you'll need the extended drive-on ramps if you intend to get a sports car on the lift as the extra two inches will also increase the angle of the ramps.
i have a 2004 denali and 76 inches is enough to clear the top of the luggage racks. unless you've raised and/or added bigger tires/wheels, you should be fine with 78 inches under the deck.
there may be other options. please give me a call to discuss.

the answer is a function of the type of vehicles you intend to store on/under the lift. the calculation is in the original post. basically, it's the height of the bottom car, plus the height of the top car, plus 5 inches (the height of the runways of the lifting platform), plus whatever clearance you need for whatever you have above the top car (such as a garage door opener, lighting, etc.).
there is a garage door opener called an I-Drive that is not mounted in the same location as a regular door opener. it's mounted to the wall above the door and works on the torsion bar that contained inside the spring-device that provides most of the lifting power for the door. an I-Drive adds considerable space in case your ceilings are low.
here's a link to see what an I-Drive looks like...
