Hey guys! Here is today's project! Looking forward to using it! Looks great with the black carrera on there . Mark

 

Looks like a new house too! Good luck with your lift. Now pave the driveway. :-)

 

I've had one for a while and I really like it.

 

Driveway is on the list for the summer! The snow just finished melting :S

 

HD-9?

 

Yea it's an HD9 that I ordered black... I also got the 110V motor and 2x RJ45 sliding jacks to get the wheels off the ramps when I need to.

I am having the garage door rails changed tomorrow to go all the way to the ceiling (12ft).

What's going under it?

 

Audi A6 3.0T s-line. I'm a vag lover .

Nice! Where did you buy it?

Also post up some pics and a review of the jacks you got. I'm getting one once we get in our new place.

 

Nice. I cant wait to see the pictures with both cars in place.

 

I actually was referred a local installer by Babco and ended up buying the lift and accessories from him directly. For me it was easier to have him coordinate the shipping/delivery to my home which was the most complicated...

I just need to get the air compressor installed and piped in the garage and then I will test out the lift and the sliding jacks.

And a beer fridge, Cable and WiFi and a BIG SCREEN. Heat? You'll need blinds for those windows, to keep prying eyes out. Maybe 3M glass break film? and more photo's of the progress...

 

Nice! What's your ceiling height? I'm looking at lifts and will be parking my A6 4.2 s-line below.

 

I actually do have blinds, they are just not shown because they are rolled up... I do have WIFI, cable and heat in the garage... Considering the limit size of the garage, the beer fridge will jave to stay in the basement . Eventually when my secondary garage is built I should have more room....

I like that 3M glass protection...

From floor to ceiling I have 12ft (with the HD9 you can get away with 10.5-11 ft ceilings easily)... I am having the garage door tracks changed to high lift tracks with a lateral motor. The lateral motor was not required since the car would be lifted on the right side of the ceiling mounted motor that I had. I just figured while I was changing the garage config, why not free up the ceiling at the same time...

Drive through width is just over 100' and height under lift at full rise is 70' which gives plenty of room since the A6 is about 57' high and 79' wide at mirror tips...

At first I wanted a HD7P which had an extra 12' of lift, but many channels of information were recommending against it and the HD9 was the lift of choice...
