Checking to see if anyone has received their Black Friday MaxJax order. I placed an order for the M-6 and was told it would ship the following Friday, then it was pushed out to the end of the month and now it's pushed out to mid-January.

Anyone else have their Black Friday purchase back-ordered?

Kelvin

Hey Kelvin,
I just got the call that mine will be arriving Monday Jan 6. Hopefully you will get your call soon.

Mine was delivered late (7pm) Monday evening. Still in the crate. Suddenly I have a ton of crap on my plate and have not even been able to open the crate to look at it yet.

I really want one of these! Looks great, how involved was the installation? And is it 110 or 220?

I'm getting too old to crawl around on my back with the 914 on jack stands and looking forward to having a little more room to work underneath now.

The installation was not too complicated at all and it is 110 VAC plug in the wall. I just followed the directions and did a lot of measuring to make sure I got it in the right spot. I was a little worried about my concrete thickness because we specified 4" when we built the house but it turned out to be just over 5".

I got mine up and running too this weekend.

I think I’m going to get three more anchors and space mine out a little more so I can have one set for small cars and one set for the 4Runner and Highlander. I had my daughters Highlander up on the lift for an oil change today (spaced at 115 inches) and it was tighter then I wanted. But I could raise the lift up all the way and the Highlander still had a get inches before it touched the rafters.

I used my WRX to bleed the system. And there is a leaky fitting that I’ll need to fix, but otherwise the thing is AWESOME.

I went to Harbor Freight today and bought a rolling stool with a couple drawers under the seat and an elevated oil change pan. Made changing the oil on the Highlander REALLY easy.

I used the anchors that came with the kit. They don't have any epoxy in them. The lift is fully planted to the ground for sure.

I used those at my last home but I had 7 inches of concrete.. The new house has supposedly 4 inches of concrete but we didn't build the house so wanted extra safety so choose the epoxy anchors that is the upgrade option ..

I used the epoxy anchors but ran out of the epoxy they give you for the kit so plan on purchasing an extra tub of epoxy.

These things almost never go on sale until Black Friday, with prices hovering around $2K for the rest of the year.

The difference between the 2 versions are that one version has more holes drilled in the frame locking pins and comes with the motorcycle attachment.

Me neither.

Its a very simple machine, and anything that would be likely to break would be cheaper and faster to fix then the extended warranty would cost.

Watch the Costco "On-line" sales and check the auto section. IIRC, I paid $1600 including delivery but that was 3 years ago.
