Anyone have a good experience with a four post lift?

looking to buy

 

My buddy has a rotary. It was ok but I wasn't super impressed. I am looking into the wildfire lifts. I'll probably order one in the spring fwiw.

 

A 4-post lift? Like a drive-on lift?

 

I'll check on those, suggestion much appreciated

 

Yes sir, drive on lift

 

Here is the wildfire unit. Looks strong

Seems like a lot of stress to on the bolts in the concrete with the single post. I like that the four post can actually be moved, at least theoretically. Not sure if it's practical in practice.

Fwiw I am choosing wild fire because it's fully boxed and doesn't need grease on the outside like backyard buddy. Just my 02.

I'm going to use mine too work on the cars, but also for long term storage. My buddy did the same and it freed up a lot of garage space.

I love my Bendpak 2 poster. Ca n get the model info if you wanted. It was 2 grand and I did the install but you need a quality slab with the right depth.

 

I like the idea of a two post, but I don't see any for storage (where the wheels are supporting the cars weight). My understanding is that it's not good to leave the suspension drooping for prolonged periods. I'm I off on this?

Also im terrified after seeing a video of lift failures on YouTube. Basically scaring me back to the 4 post.

With many of the 4 post no drilling is even required. Like that.

The slab is 6". I like the bendpak brand. They look solid and they have "compact" options. Does yours require an air compressor? I've seen a few of them that require air pressure to run the safety stops
