Default Anyone know someone that sells 4 post car lifts?

Does anyone know someone that sells used or new car lifts? I would like to purchase a 2 post car lift for the house so I can change my oil and work on my car.

Let me know
Roger

Give these guys a call, they were very friendly and helpful for me. I bought a 2-post lift and my tire machines from them. They also sometimes have used lifts, and also do installations.

J.A.M. Distributing http://www.jamdistributing.com/equipment.html , install and everything was $4200 or $4700 i cant remember for a 4 post drive on, 14,000lb lift that can do even the biggest diesel pickups. i imagine a smaller one would be less. they sell/install smaller lifts (2 and 4 post) so i imagine you could pay less than i did if it's just for smaller cars. they sell rotary brand lifts.

Challenger lifts suck. They don't last in a shop.

Send me a PM, I know a guy that pulls them out of dealerships that close down and re-sells them. I think we got our 2 post for around 1300 or something close, and this was installed. It's not a cheapie either.

Bendpack are good; Rotary are used in most professional shops and are about the best. A good cheap 4 post (if you were considering a 4 post) is the Back Yard Buddy. Bob at rbwholesale.com is a very nice guy. Good luck!
