I've been pondering what sort of lift would work for my garage also (leaning towards a 4 poster though). Ceiling is just over 8 foot so know I wouldn't be able to stack two cars, but might be able to put the lift across the back wall, get a car on it and lift it high enough to pull the nose of another car under it. That would solve the winter storage issue.
Mornin, why not just pour a six inch pad/slab and put up a buildin? I did a 30x40 for my additional needs, with 2 10ft doors. Much easier to access the essentials. Did my own work, scrounged the materials, drove the nails. Cost was small and filled the ticket.
It's nice to be able to get under the car without laying on your back and the part you are working on inches from your face. I got my lift about a month ago and love it. I also got the sliding bridge jack but have not used it yet but knew if I didnt buy it when I got the lift, Id never order it later. Hope you like your new lift. I sure wish I had as much room in my garage as you have
Very wise choice Phil. If I'm ever in your area, maybe I can stop by and we'll have dinner, OFF YOUR GARAGE FLOOR!!
