Car lift question....
As part of my new garage I want to put in a lift. I know I am going with a Challenger Lift but not sure if I should go with a 2 post or a 4 post type.
I can think of pro's and con's either way. Space and safety are my biggest concerns.
Maybe a 4 post that I can wheel out of the bay would be a nice option.
A 69 Camaro and a Viper will share the area.
Please let me know what you think.
Thanks [img]/images/graemlins/wave.gif[/img]

I go with the two post...you can't change a tire with the four post...let alone take all four tires/wheels off and play with the suspension
Now, if you are just changing oil...then get the four post...

Of course, you could dig a pit in the center of your garage for the oil change and go with the two post lift for suspension work?

Re: Car lift question....
I went thru this same delima when I bought mine. I installed a 4 post because I mainly use mine for storage. I didn't like the idea of storing a car with the suspension hanging. I have a Perfect Park 7000 and haven't had an ounce of trouble with it. I'll try to post a picture tomorrow because my server is currently down.
