But it's nice to see the concern about my safety. I appreciate it.
When I installed my 4 post lift....it was before I covered the ceiling with the styro panels. I got anxious to start and at 9 in the morning I used a ladder to slide a 4X4 over a couple joists and hooked my cable come-along to it.
I used that to pick up every heavy piece of the lift...and to raise the 3 piece end up when assembled. The ramp that holds the hydraulic ram weighs close to 400 lbs and all went well. From start to finish, I'm the only person who touched that lift.
Oh...also, I was completely done by 3 in the afternoon.
