I am looking at adding a set of Ranger QuickJacks to my garage. I am looking at the Bl-3500. It appears that they cost around 1k.
http://www.bendpak.com/Shop-Equipment/QuickJack/BL-3500.aspx It looks like they would be easy to store when not in use. Thoughts? |

Mike, thanks for the heads up on the QuickJack quality and customer support issues. Over the last couple of days I have been pondering the QuickJack purchase and doing a bit of "do diligence" on the net. I ran across a second option for a home lift. I found a small two post lift that will fit in most garages with and eight foot ceiling. http://www.maxjaxusa.com/ This system allows the lift to be unbolted from the floor and stored when it is not in use. The price point is in the 2k range but it would make an engine drop out of a 914 pretty easy. It is a lot less mobile then the QuickJack but it will lift a car four feet. That sure seems like a pretty good trade off.
