The lift is holding up perfectly, mind you all the components (pump, motor and the cylinders) are from North America and its assemble in Ontario and its reflected in the price when you compare it to fully Off Shore one.
After the car, this was the best buy. It already paid itself. Last winter project, a full brake job (new; rotors, pad, shoes, lines, caliper pistons and so on) was less then $1K.
From the day you get one, you are only buying parts, no more labor cost.
Yes I had to modified the rear cross member. The are a few version available on the forum (one of them was pretty nice) but the easiest would be to cut the member flush, bolt corner angle at each end and bold those back on the lift. Once required remove it drop the engine/transmission and put it back. It will void the warranty on the frame and should generate some safety debate... Just over engineer the piece.
Yes go for it.
The company I got it from use to ship to the US but stop last year at about the same time a company in the US started to sell one that look exactly the same and claim it is made in the US. Even the price was the same.

P.S. Cylinders at the front of the car
