Sure! I just uploaded it to Thingiverse and added the link to the description. Good luck building!

@@AlfisGarage thanks I really appreciate it.

Thanks man! I didn’t get to do that one yet 😵‍💫

Thanks for watching. I never had the Quickjack and I think it is practical how portable it is, but this seems definitely stronger. 👍

The issue was that the hydraulics and cables were coming out between the two parking spots in the garage. I wanted them to come out at the wall side of the lift :)

Thanks for feedback!

Thanks for watching! :)

Certainly that would be possible too, but then you also need to remove the brake caliper. But then with spring compressor, it is easier to assemble it off the car. Good luck! 👍

FYI, there are many universal ball joint removers, which work similarly like the one which I have, but they are slightly bigger and probably would fit better. I have just the one I’ve shown on video, but that was a bit too small for this particular ball joint.

There is a screw/valve on the hydraulic pump that you either loosen or tighten to change how quickly the fluid flows. There is only 1 setting with or without load. If you set it slower while there is a load, it will be REALLY slow if there is no load.

In my case, when the car is on the lift and I want to lower it, it can be said that the car is falling and not lowering, I don't know where to look for the reason. Poland

@@seweryndymkowski5085 that was same for me :D look at my video at 5:50 you can see two “ screws” at the side of the pump - the black is a fitting for hydraulic - and behind it the silver screw is the valve. You need to tighten it a little bit - then test it.

I have one more question is there a sensor to make the lift slow down more before the end of lowering?

@@seweryndymkowski5085 no there is no such sensor and its not possible to do something like that on simple one way pumps like this.

Watch my follow up video where I explain turning it around was not a solution for me 👍

Thanks for watching, I’m glad it helped! :)

Thanks for watching! Yes you could surely design it with caster wheels that will rotate 360 degrees :)

I’m in Slovakia mate.

Thanks for watching! 😀

Thanks for watching and for feedback 👍

Above all comfortable! 🤣

It depends, I didn’t do any irreversible changes, so I could put it back as it was + I didn’t do anything to any of the components or mechanics.

Not that easy, because the lift has a front and rear side and the front is capable for more weight. Since most cars are front heavy, the car front needs to be at the front of the lift. I’m actually surprised how many people have raised this question. I’ll do a follow up video where I’ll try to explain.

There is actually a front side of the lift - the legs are moving towards the front when it is raising and the car front is usually heavier so it should be at front. I’ll do a follow up and will try to explain, as many people raised the question :)

That is correct, but the lift has front side which should be at the front of the car due to fact that most cars are front heavy. If I would turn it around I would have to reverse onto the lift. I’ll do a follow up video because the question was raised many times :)

Well most 2 post lifts that I’ve seen were about 2.8m tall so they would barely fit - but I wouldn’t be able to raise the car much higher anyway - when I raise my M5 to 1 meter with this I have about 30cm left 👍

Hi there. I can’t give you any links, I can only tell you “google it”. BMW diagnostics and coding is a big topic on its own - I can recommend a channel called BimmerDoc (@BimDoc)- the guy is very knowledgeable and can explain things very vell.

The lift has a front side and the front of the car should be at the front of the lift due to weight distribution.

Thanks for feedback. Any suggestion what to replace/ how to make it better?

In fact you don't know nothing about scissors lift

Not a stupid question at all!. There is actually a front side of the lift - the legs are moving towards the front when it is raising and the car front is usually heavier so it should be at front. I’ll do a follow up and will try to explain, as many people raised the question :)

I fully agree 👍

I wish it would be that easy :) The lift has its front and back side - the way how the legs move, the front can handle more weight and that is why the front of the car should be on the front side of the lift. If I would turn it around, I would have to reverse onto the lift. BTW - it may seem a bigger struggle than it was, but I swapped the lines and cables in about an hour and half... and that was with filming.

I'm in Slovakia, most houses have 3 phase power supply and I think this is true for many countries in Europe :) Apartments/flats have usually 1 phase - but even for those you can request to have 3 phase installed.

@@AlfisGarage Interesting. It's 220 in UK and I don't think I've ever seen power adaptors for sale meant for Europe other than 220 or 240 (old UK domestic voltage) Google also seems to think that the voltage used throughout Europe has been harmonised at 230v since January 2003 (though it does state that it doesn't mean there has been a real change in the supply) Certainly in the UK 3 phase is only really found in commercial buildings such as garages/machine shops etc.

@@Nite-owl Of course we have 230V - that's the usual 1 phase voltage in any home :)... it was 220V in the past... but it has been standardized as you say to 230V now..... when you have 3 phases of 230V, across the phases you would measure 400V (in the past it was 380v)

Haha, I don’t doubt that :) we shall see how long it will hold!

Hallo Marcus! Thank you for watching! I purchased thru local eshop: www.mantech.sk/noznicovy-zdvihak-kpn-3500-elektromagneticke-zapadky-bez-potreby-kompresora/

I can sit underneath the car, while I would still need to lay on the floor under the quickjack.

You can drive on to the lift from both sides but Front of the car should be at the front of the lift, due to the way how scissor legs move and cars are usually heavier at the front. If I would turn it around, I would have to reverse onto the lift to be able to use it. I’ll do a follow up video, as this question was raised couple of times :)

Thanks Alfie.

Scissor lifts are universal, made for front, mid, or rear engine cars.

@@xromeodelacruzx that is of course true 👍

I will do a review of the lift and its security features etc. Stay tuned! :)

Thanks for watching! This is where I bought it from: www.mantech.sk/noznicovy-zdvihak-kpn-3500-elektromagneticke-zapadky-bez-potreby-kompresora/

I don’t know why it gets recommended 😂

@@AlfisGarage Ok, i was curious. Hope you the best with your chanel. Bye

I bought from local eshop: www.mantech.sk/noznicovy-zdvihak-kpn-3500-elektromagneticke-zapadky-bez-potreby-kompresora/

It has the igniter in the back, like a ball pen :)

It is pretty standard over here, all homes have 3 phase (400V) only smaller flats/apartments have usually 1 phase (230V)

@@AlfisGarage wowwww how far are we behind the world here in the UK

@@junebrooks665 BTW there are single phase versions of these lifts and they are usually even cheaper. I opted for 3 phase because my single phase breaker for garage is only 16A and the 2.2kW motor could trip that sometimes when starting (at least my compressor does)

Will try and improve on that ✌️

Fair question, but depending on what goes wrong, cutting up the cables may or may not be related to the warranty claim. Also, i could still put everything back as it was - I didn’t do any irreversible changes.
