Nice Lift

[Charles Cook]

My buddy and I are trying to put this thing together ourselves. What a job.

 

[Duda]

What name brand is it. Mine is a forward and we put it together 8 years ago with the forklift.

 

[Charles Cook]

Not sure on the manufacturer’s name will look tomorrow. We had the help from a over head lift. It was still a three man job.

Do I need to send the Wife down to show you how... LOL

 

[Charles Cook]

We can use the help on the next one, it’s 40 foot long, it’s made for the big commercial wreckers. Thanks for volunteering her help. Lol

Hey @Charles Cook Let me know when it's finished, I will come give it a whirl. Makes oil changes an easy job.

PS What weight is it rated for?

Awesome truck!

I have hauled a few loads for Elite Towing in Moncks Corner, S.C.
Great company, but the ugliest color trucks IMO. School bus yellow and Carolina blue.

That's a pretty truck, but that school bus yellow is gross. They have a few nice old B Body Macks that I tried to buy. No luck.
Is that a rotator?

 

[Charles Cook]

I think so, not sure about that one.

 

[Scott Engelhardt]

I put these in by myself often

 

[Charles Cook]

You the man.

 

[Ironbuilt]

You the man.

What's the weight rating on that semi lift?

I'd be happy if I had any help lol. When my 2 post showed up I couldn't wait to get it installed so I did it by myself... Yours looks to have heavier parts though.

Man I wish I still had a lift, I miss my old shop
I was supposed to have my back shop done by now
maybe after the next few summers, I can

hopefully, my dad is done with RV-ing, finally
I've let him use it for near 20 years now

so I can finally get back to & start on my shop outback
(I put it off a few years because dad (85) still wants to travel)
then get rid of the RV & Boat, make some room
make the carport a real 28'x42' shop with an assembly area,
a lift & a pit...

someday

I thought about putting a Bendpack 4 post lift in the garage,
70" (or 72") vertical lift
it has like 10'-8" ceiling, but only 19'-9" deep & wide
I could put it in the center of the garage,
store the car 68 RR on top & possibly park the Dakota underneath
still have some garage to work in

I think the shop outback, is a better option
I only wish I did it 10+ years ago

What's the weight rating on that semi lift?
