They look absolutely fantastic and I love how they are on an angle to the Swisstrax. This is exactly what I will want doing when we begin our new build. Another incredible video, well done everyone at OG
You're "98% there." Those level adjusters will make this installation perfect. I love that it is smooth and flush with the surface --- not a tripping hazard. Well done, gentlemen. Well done.👍👍
I bought the Twin Busch from OG and am finally getting it close to operating. I did mine in ground as an original pour. I have had to figure it all out myself. Kudos to these videos for going through this process . Mine would have been a bit cleaner if I was able to watch this first.
I bought this lift about 15mo ago from OG and absolutely love it but I installed it on the floor. This summer I want to flush mount so will need to order those components for each end to support the ramp extensions
Keeping the hydraulic cylinders extended for an extended period of time can cause corrosion and damage the seals, especially if exposed to soap and water. That’s the only way this type of hydraulic system can me damaged. Also getting paint on the exposed shafts. But this is an amazing installation.
The rods are hard chromed and the seals really don't care if the cylinders are fully extended or retracted, they are at the same state in either condition. Should never be an issue👍🏻
Awesome setup. I would have done similar flush mount install if it had been possible but since I have an underfloor heating it's not possible even tough the primary heat source is actually a mini split. - din't want to break that just in case I would ever need that. ps. I hope Nussbaum gets their production up to speed - i've been waiting for a Sprinter now four months and there's no sign of that even here in Europe - even the local reseller can't give an estimate of the delivery. That's ridiculous as I could get off the shelf some of these chinese knock offs scissor lifts. So Matt's comment about ordering those now regardless when you need those is quite accurate.
I’d have a stainless trim bent in a 90 that’ll have a 1/2-3/4 inch lip on top and run it down to the bottom of the pocket it’ll hide that ugly cut edge and look finished.
Do they sell a single side for motorcycles. I’ve been researching lifts but they all take of to0 much space when not in use. This would be the solution. May not be cost effective but then most thing I like aren’t
@@improvedgarage I heard that, but Im not sure how having two cylinders keeps the lift from falling if pressure is lost. Mike had to use boards to hold the lift up so he could unhook the lines, which tells me the lines are always under pressure...
@@blake8297 Losing pressure would have no effect since it is filled with fluid. It's a closed system. Valving on cylinder would 'fail closed' at a pressure or fluid loss. Low or high pressure would trigger the limits. There are too many redundancies for a catastrophic failure. Every hose and double-seal would have to fail at same time.
@@timkinley1779 So youre saying it has two completely separate hoses and two separate cylinders that are not connected in any way? I guess that helps, but it would still be nice to see some sort of mechanical lock.
@@blake8297 Thats not how hydraulic seals work. It's a push only. The fluid doesn't flow like compressed air cylinder. There is no negative space in the cylinder. The pump is building pressure, not moving fluid. The reservoir is only for headspace and isolation. The pump seals and cylinder valving are independent of each.
The foundations Mike is describing for a 2 post is way overkill. They don’t need huge footings. A regular 10k lb 2 post lift only needs 4.25” 3,000 psi minimum concrete with rebar every 12 inches. The baseplate of each post spreads the load out over many square inches, so in reality the loaded lift is only exerting a few hundred pounds per square inch onto the concrete slab.
That is true if you are installing it on an existing slab with the proper specs. To install after the fact where the slab is 3 1/2" to 4" thick like what we have the foundation should equal the max weight of the load to prevent toppling.

@@peterjohnson8631 TW S3-19, the same one Matt had. I just looked it up again, it’s now 4399.00, up over 1000 from when I purchased it.
Damn that's a sick set up! You guys killed it!
Deep heavy and 40 n/mm2 for any slabs.
Well said Mike.
Mike is the man. Like his videos and his workmanship.👍💪

wow thats clean so nice, hope i will do it one day in my garage
Seeing Matt wearing that shirt with the GT3 artwork in the background.... it's like I'm looking in a mirror!

@@MikeFigueira nice. I only mention it from experience. I would still watch my overspray with undercoating.
Such a slick install!

That's pretty darn cool.
That looks awesome!
Any safety features if this thing gives out? Does it have some sort of locking mechanism
Do I spot a possible OG Rupes machine on top of the cabinets? Like what Larry did? 👀
With recessed mounting would it be ok to park a car on it every day...for garages which don't have the room?
You absolutely can park on it 24/7.
Matt has some heat on his feet 🔥
I’m working on getting him fully decked out. Jordan’s coming soon 😎
@@LouisMartinJr haha I like it 😂 🔥
Did Mike ever get his Miller OG Spec contractor wheelbarrow?
He did not...yet
cree underlift led lights to follow?
the whole series was awesome

Are there drains in the holes?
What size lift is that 1 in this video
Now that's a dialed setup. Nice job. But what's with all the junk on the counters lol

Nussbaum doesn't make one.
Are these guys brothers? They talk identically.
Brothers? About the only similarities they share is both walk upright, breath air and stand up to pee.
What kind of safety does this thing have? Line blows out, then what?
he mentioned redundant cylinders at the end.
