- One person can do it but I did feel it the next day (I'm 6'2, 220lbs) Use a friend or engine-lift for track placement, your back will thank you later and I didn't have either available to me at the time.
- The parts are quality, I do wish the safety locking rails were a bit thicker, they bend easily.
- The lift is good for both storage and performing maintenance in my view. (I have a 3-car garage)
- You will need to be a little mechanically inclined because the instructions are weak. Youtube videos are okay, I used them to view teardown and that's about it.
- If your house is newer, I think it's okay to switch the 20amp breaker to 30amp for the plug without running new wires. I checked amps with both a car off and on the lift. It didn't draw too hard with my very heavy electric car on it. (I'm an Electrical Engineer) I'm not responsible if you don't re-run new wires :)
- Wider Cars, you will notice a little tire overhang of about an inch or two with zero modification.
- There isn't a guard to protect the hydraulic fitting on the outside of the lift and if having wider tires, watch to make sure it doesn't roll over the fitting. They could have made the hole for the fitting lower but then the locking rails would be in the way.
- Leaks will/may be detected after you place the car on the lift and apply pressure to the lines. be sure to check the tightness of the hydraulic fittings underside the ramps, don't assume they are fully tight from the factory. I had to quickly think, take the locking rails apart to get the the back of the fitting to snug it tight.
- The system calls for 3 gallons of hydraulic or transmission fluid, get 3.5 gallons because the lines suck some fluid into the system. If you get a 5-gallon bucket, that is great to do top-offs when the fluid starts breaking down a little.
- Important! If you want to get your lift closer to a wall at the left side of the garage driving inward, you'll need to have the motor on the opposite end. I did this to maximize space and was still able to tuck in a sport-motorcycle you can't see from the photo on the other side of the lower car. The ramps are meant to be opposite side of the motor assembly and I had to use a saws-all to modify one of the gorgeous ramps. The locking mechanism handle is slightly in the way of the ramp to drop completely down in the slot to hold it in place.
- I can get both cars in without the garage tracks being modified and I think this is mostly the case for lower-profiled cars. I will be installing the garage rails kit so I can open the garage door fully instead of halfway to slide in the bottom car. I did remove the mechanical garage lift and guide rail so I can lift any car to the 10'10" ceiling. I now lift the single-car garage door manually until I install the solution. Both SUV's fit easily without spacing issues through the double side door where that one is still motorized.
- Cheers to those who like to do things themselves! This was fun to do, and a great price. I may just do it again to make my 3-car garage a 5-car because I like to challenge my lady's patience to check if she still loves me :)
I used a dump trailer and slid it out the back of the trailer. was a little sketchy but it worked :)
So the only reason I chose 4 stars and not 5 are for two reasons.
1. They do not tell you the hydraulic piston assembly works exactly backwards from how you think. Me and my two sons assembled the entire lift in about 3 hours and it took 2 additional hours to figure out why I couldn't get it to raise. Costed me $150 worth of hydraulic fluid in the process.
2. The locking mechanism is not well designed. When you lift your car to desired height and then decide to move the lever to set it and use the safety lock it doesn't always catch. You need to walk to the back and verify it each time. You can actually lower the car and have the front locked and the rear miss, even on one post. Very dangerous, the springs are not strong enough and you need to manually push the locking lever in all the way. I would say 9/10 times. Its a real pan in the butt to be honest and I have been thinking on a mod for it but have not come up with one as of yet. Other then a heavier duty spring.
End result on this lift though, it is super easy and I have never popped a breaker and did nothing special for that circuit. For the price this is the best lift out there, i would buy again without hesitation.
One important point is to measure what the runway is going to fit onto and set the posts with the cross bar to that length, then check for square by measuring diagonally. Within a 1/2" and you will be fine.
Pro:
Pre-installed the cables
Fasteners were on most of the parts already
Everything was packaged up nicely
Delivery was a breeze
Seems to be manufactured well
Steel reservoir tank on hydraulic pump
Con:
Instructions are useless - written by someone who does not comprehend english very well. An example under storage (gave me a chuckle) "The machine should be stocked in the warehouse. If stocked outside, should do the anti-water things"
The post with the pump mount was a little tight to get the cross bar slide into and had to use a prybar to expand it so it would slide in. With the weight of the runways on it and some grease, its fine. Made assembly a challenge.
Its painted, not powder coated. If that's powder coat, they have found a way to put very little on.
Shorted me one of the lock washers for the runways. No big deal, I had some to replace it.
