Two post lift that stores away when not needed
Looks impressive to me. Just thought folks here might be interested.

Why don't they put prices on web sites?

I'm just not a fan of the two post lifts. Not enough bolts to make me comfortable under one.
Of course I grew up with a center rise, which isn't easily added to an existing building. |

Seriously; with the amount of work it takes to set it up, it doesn't seem worth it to take it back down. If I'm going to go through all of that, I may as well just get a normal full-size two-poster. My Mohawk mid-rise lift is also touted as being portable. I tried that exactly one time - **** that.

I priced them in Canada and they were a bit cheaper than a permenent 2 post, for me I like a scissor lift and they were cheaper than the Max jack.

great tool!!
Have had my MaxJax for a few years now. Got one fo the first 50 made. Once you install the anchors you can really put it up and take it down in less than 10 minutes. I leave mine in place all the time since it is not in the way.
For awhile you could pick them up at Costco for $1899 delivered. I did get an email from the vendor that prices were going up, $2200 if I remember right. It is much handier then a scissor jack since you have full access to underside, and I have no issues working under it. It is sturdy and fits great in a normal garage.
