Default 911 Lifted

I picked up my lift and had it home saturday afternoon. It took the rest of saturday to unload off the trailer and break down the 2x2x15 foot package. The 600 lb hydraulic ramp was the toughest but I had rented an engine hoist and thankfully I did. The posts , cross beams and one end of the hydraulic ramp were in place by saturday night.
Sunday I bolted the hydraulic ramp to the other cross beam, hooked up the lock release mechanism, cables , and added the second ramp. Torqued all nuts, attached power unit, and gave her a whirl. I leveled the ramps and cross beams, set the lock ladder and then put the P car on and lifted it to height. Here it is with the wifes car below.
I now have a three car garage..... Yay

That's awesome. What's your ceiling height in the garage to clear a SUV & a car?

Ceiling height is 10'7 or 127, the SUV is 64", the 911 is 51", the lift runways/ cross supports 4.5" for a total of 119.5" which gives me 7.5" of clearance space.

Nice job. My wife and I assembled ours a couple of years ago. It is quite a job, but very satisfying once you put it to first use. I had mine delivered on a flat bed tow truck, and they slid the whole package right into the garage for me.
