Do you have a lift in your garage? - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Hi guys,
I'm looking at getting a 4 post lift in my garage. Wondering what brand you have. I'm looking at Atlas up in New Hampshire. They have a 8k and a 12k lb capacity and leaning to the 12k since it's longer and won't have the posts in the way when I want to work on the old 69.
So if you have one... What brand and did you pay someone to lift your garage door or did you do it yourself?
Thanks!

I have a 4 Post Rotary. Had it for close to 10 Years - never a problem. Probably one of the best automotive purchases I've ever made!

I have a 4 post 9k# Bend Pak. 3 of my buddies and I put it up. When a buddy of mine got his just the 2 of us put it up.

Thanks guys! I'm trying to get the garage ready before I order. I'm going to lift the garage door before I order. The prices are very similar between the brands. The Atlas website is really good to get the dimensions. Pretty sure I'm going to get the 408-sl. I like that the cables are enclosed so I get extra room to work on the 69.

I have a two post 11K lb in my garage. One of those things you wonder how you ever lived without it. Neighbor just orderd a 9K lb Atlas. Did a lot of research and has heard nothing but good things about it.
If you want someone to talk to about lifts, Glenn Kurkjan at Techlifts is great. He sold me mine, installed it and does a maintenance check every year.

toolconnection@aol.com is his email. Tell him Dan from NH sent you.

I've got a 2 post 9k rotary that I love. Bought it used. It's the asymmetrical model. Once you have one you will wonder how you lived without.

Some day...

First I need the garage though.

I have A garage, but even if I took out all the "stuff", the ceiling is too low.
Really would need an apprproate sized garage where a lift can go in.
