I'm happy to say the lift is in - an Atlas 2-post. We used it yesterday on an F150 and found that I need to bring more tools out. I've been keeping tools at 2 places and don't really have what's needed at either place.
There were new tires on this truck and somehow the lug nuts were on so tight that a 3/8 breaker in a jack handle broke. Some of the lug nuts were also rounded and only a 6 pt socket would grab. I haven't looked up the torq specs but they are only 100# on my 00 Cummins and these are smaller lugs.
I've learned that a lift is WONDERFUL and that I don't want to hassle with building a house. Also reminded by the lug nuts that no one works on my vehicles (except one local indy who is a much better mechanic than I'll ever be).
The 86 goes up in the air this week to see what I see. It's been on the ground except for when I bought it. I have to look up the jack points so as not to bugger something up.
