Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Just an FYI for any Costco members out there. I got the link to this in my email Costo flyer. The price is $1,899.99 and S&H is included in the price. Dannmar MaxJax� 2-Post Portable Auto Lift 6,000 lbs. Lifting Capacity, Industrial Grade Hydraulic Cylinders, Fully Adjustable Lift Arms http://www.costco.com/Browse/Product...DannmarMaxJax# I found it interesting primarily due to the fact that they have a 996 in the sample pics.

POST 2Original post

Yea saw this online last night when I was comparing someone's garage floor tiles for sale, I've already got my concrete guy looking at my floor and what needs to be done.

POST 4Original post

Doh! I paid $2100, delivered, 3 months ago from Garage Equip Supply! Hate when I see threads like this. That $200 savings would pay for a few qts of oil!

POST 5Original post

Too bad it wont lift 993's, it only has a load limit of 6000lbs.....

POST 7Original post

the only problem is that its max height is 52" with 3" lift adapters. thats a pretty awkward crouching height, and i don't think working in a chair is likely for me.

POST 8Original post

here's a link to the setup of it all http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7kXzzrufv_M Then here's a reason to buy it http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L5e5c...eature=related

POST 9Original post

Great find Tom...... I'm thinking of putting one of these in specifically....the four post for storage....anyone have one, bought one from costco, and how much goes in to having to raise the rails in your garage...... http://www.costco.com/Browse/Product...133&lang=en-US

POST 10Original post

Looks great, I like the fact that it can be moved out of the way when not needed. I can't find the requirements for the concrete slab anywhere. Is 6" thick with #10 rebar adequate?

POST 11Original post

Quotes source post: 7810533

I do not know the spec on the one you posted but mine is very similar. My garage is 13' ceilings and I paid something like $600 to have the local garage door company replace the rails and beefier springs to take the door to the highest location. You need to add bigger springs since the door will be too much for the springs that are probably on your door right now.

POST 14Original post

Test Parameters: Fc = 3000PSI (strength of concrete) Test weight = 6,000 lbs. Anchor/bolt rated strength (each) = 12,580 lbs.

POST 15Original post

Costco's return policy makes this one an easy test , get it, install it, 30 days to play with it, like it keep it, otherwise take it back... I'm just trying to convince myself that I need it,

Yup, need and want are definitely 2 different tings

POST 17Original post

yeah.. Hmmmmm.... one of those babies is getting added to the xmas list

POST 18Original post

To each their own, but if you can not stand up straight underneath your car, why have it it all? Here's my 4 post

If anybody is interested, here's a thread showing my setup with some install comments. https://rennlist.com/forums/996-foru...me-garage.html

my thoughts exactly

POST 21Original post

Some garage ceilings don't allow it, and it's still better than being on your back.

Hey it is me under my old car !!!!! I have been dreaming of installing a similar lift in my side garage, can't convince the wife yet

POST 23Original post

Hey Renaud, your old car looks good up there ! We need to have another Porsche party soon.

POST 24Original post

Doug, How far apart did you put the "columns" 115"?

POST 25Original post

Quotes source post: 7813211

yeah, 4 posts suck IMO. You cant do brake, bearing or wheel work and with a bad back, getting the car up where you can stand beisde it and work on it is a HUGE plus. I really like you can move it out of the way as well. And with my lower ceiling its perfect. I like the roller seat idea to be under the car. Becasue honestly I thought the same thing as the above comment until I saw that it is just abotu right height to use the roller.

POST 28Original post

Resurrecting an old thread here. Has anyone dropped an engine/ transmission using a 4-post lift? I would like one for the storage option, but I need a service lift regularly. I am looking at at 9000lb 4-post lift locally. Thoughts?
