This is what I'm talking about guys, y'all have any experience with these?? Seem pretty awesome to me. Of course there's different kinds, without those braces in the center etc. it seems it could be better for tranny work etc, even with a low ceiling. Be really comfortable in a creeper.

Herb,

Thank you for the feedback. I checked out Kwik-Lift on Google Search and found some excellent deals on used systems; WOW, I checked in vain for used sets a couple years back and had to purchase mine new at the regular retail price – picking up a used unit is the best deal as there is nothing to really wear or go wrong as they are really heavy duty and foolproof/indestructible units.

I added the car-dollie casters to my lift and I can push the entire system around the garage with one hand and moderate pressure – and that is with my car on the lift! I have a double-deep garage and it takes about three minutes to push the Plymouth to the other side of the garage so I can drive the Dodge through the space previously occupied by the Kwik-Lift with my Ply on it.

By the way, what led you to suspect they may be going out of business?

Thank you,

Gary

It appears that Kwik Lift might be or is going out of business. Just Google it before you jump. Other than that it sounds like it is just what Jacob is looking for. Only found one person disappointed.

Jacob,

My “regular height” garage ceiling would not permit a full-size two or four-post hyd. lift; and in CA (earthquakes) I would not want my car elevated to that height. Additionally, it is more fatiguing at times to stand and work with your arms elevated under a full-size lift (for some people anyway). For those reasons I chose a Kwik-Lift system that allows me to drop transmissions, work on the brakes/suspension...without fatigue and concerns of having my car suspended with hydraulics...check it out online or e-mail me at glpavlovich@xxxxxxx and I will send you pictures of my car on the lift. No, I don’t sell or benefit from this lift mfgr. in any way, just found it to be the right lift for my needs, concerns, and ultimate safety. It will easily and quickly (less than ten minutes) fold down so you can park on it or drive over it when not in use...and it is easily moved if you want but the parking and drive-over features make it unnecessary to do so.

Dustin I do believe and I he was in MO too if memory serves me correct.

Yes on a 220 motor AND get aluminum ramps, so much lighter than steel.
