Used one of the hoists you ordered when I went to tech college, not a bad thing. Has a very secure pin locking mechanism so you aren't hanging the car off hydraulic rams when you aren't lifting it. Molnar overhead ones are the bees knees but priced so from what I can see.PSN: Tobed0g90Originally posted by GSRmanComment

When I got my hoist, the installer gave me two pieces of advice:
1. A slab to send a mates car into the air, a slab to bring it down
2. Never let a car that isn't yours sit there over night. Don't let mates do jobs which take more than a day.
He was saying this with authority, as his mates race car was currently suspended on his hoist at home, deep into its second year.Comment

If I ever get to build a shed I would consider creating a recess in the slab that you could put a cover plate on so the hoist is never in the way when you not using it.Originally posted by seedyrom View Postwww.DRIVENFX.com Performance Engine Building, Auto Electrical (Wiring Looms, ECU Installs, Diganoses and Repair), Custom Automotive Electronics, Car Preparation, Car Setup, Trackside Services,

They cost a bucket load. My mate was looking at them (japanese and german ones though, I think bishamon was one brand) and the prices he was getting were scary. They were five figure prices (can't remember quotes, but can ask him). I remember thinking that I could just build a dedicated bay with a normal hoist for the prices he was talking.
Also, there is significant foundation requirements for the in ground ones.
Having said all that, they are so cool.Comment
