I set 5 of four post up. To put the cross pieces in we lay post down on the ground install the cross piece then tip post in the up right.
I would highly recommend building a cover over your lift. It's not designed to be left out in the elements. The metal is actually pretty thin and you can see deflection in the runners. I would add pipe or angle iron to either side of the tread runners and weld into place to eliminate the deflection especially if you plan on using it for anything other than your Ranger. Remember to subtract the lift weight from it's total capacity to get it's safe working/ lifting capacity.
John is a beast; he is going to be very successful. Thanks for the video on this because there is no way in hell this is worth putting up with under any means.
11:00 I've heard this issue on other lifts. They swapped the cable to the lower pulley somehow to clear the bolt. I like your idea.
post some more photos around how it works, and the design. I want to built one like that!!
imagine the notes u would get if you did this in a neighborhood 🤣
nice video ty, I am curious how much did it all cost when it was all said and done, for example, what did it cost you to send it to a company to offload it, what was your end cost. ty
well you made a wise investment its now worth double hehe
How's it holding up outdoors in the elements?
Is it good in the rain
Wow now its $1250 more money. That inflation, and China is suck of shipping us things.
Would you know the difference between a 4 post service lift and a 4 post storage lift. Can you do service work on a storage lift??? Glenn
Service lift is normally reinforced on the inner rails to jack more weight. Some have cut out for slide ins for alignment equipment. I use my storage lift for everything. But reality is I should have a service lift.
@@redneckcomputergeek Thanks for your response & input. So if you have an average car in my case a 55 Chevy 3,300 lbs you could use a parking lift safely periodically. Does it have holes in the upper columns for long term fullup position hand safety pins to install heard some do.. Is their any other differences I tried To find out on my own couldnt .. regards Glenn
@@GPOldMarineShop I have had up to a 6k pound E250 ford van on mine with no problems at all. Yes mine has the pin holes in the top for long term storage. My bet would be its an earth quake safty thing cause the normal 4 holding points are massive.
@@redneckcomputergeek Thanks for your help and I tell you cant get them lifts for $2245 any more,LOLL! You did real good Best Of Luck! Also lots of 4 post scam lift websites out there its really sickening ......
Did you just set it on pavers?
How much was it. And we're did you order at
I hate 4 post lifts makes working so much harder. For a quick oil change or an alignment their fine.
How is it handling the rain? Do you cover the compresor area so it doesn't get wet?
Just used it to unload a generator off my truck bed today. I change the grease in the towers to boat trailer grease and it works great. If you look in the background of videos you will see the pump is covered in a thick black trash bag that I swap out every 6 months or so.
Would you recommend anything different to people who are also planning to use it without a concrete pad starting out?
To do it over again I would have made a crushed rock base in each corner a good 6 inches deep. The one corner near the edge of the gravel corner has sunk and been releveled twice. The second relevel I dug it out and did crushed rock and it has never moved after that.
How much did it cost?
Can you add air lift dollys?
I bought what i believe is the same lift, i have it fully assembled and it seems a bit wobbly with no weight on it, is this normal? when pushing on the corners the entire lift will move a bit.
Yes once it has weight it will be fine.
You’re in Belfast aren’t you?
Yes on the edge of the town line. Hoping to get out in the country again soon.
@@redneckcomputergeek that’s awesome! I thought I recognized you. You’re world famous haha. I went to bahs
Cool video!
@@apexconversion9249 LOL Not famous but known well enough it makes me a living. If funny how many people I went to school with kick up a comment at some point :)
Did no one hear the ghost at 2:30?
You put the cables on wrong the top cable that runs to the side post should be just like the right side. It needed to be in the bottom pulley not the top one the bolt will not hit if you put it in right you need to take them off the ram and just put the top on the bottom and bottom one on the top.. If you do this over watch a you tube video first, lol.
What brand is this lift?
They got bought out by a company called Mayflower amzn.to/3DIAs4S
$3599 now in 2023
At that rate might as well buy used name brand.....
How tall are you again.......😂
To tall some days still short on others.
You got taller as the video went on😂
Look at the price of this cheapo lift today in 2021... 4FKING GRAND! Thanks biden! #FJB
Did Biden add a 25 percent tariff? I guess he hasn't gotten rid of that dumbass idea, so yeah I pissed at him too.
@@racing5k No tariff on these.. I'm importing a lift right now and they are exempt. It's the steel prices driving the cost. But F ol joe anyways.
@@jagboy69 so basically because I don't like democrats, everything that happens its their fault! good one dumbass! way to glaze over that this is trumps fault from the tariffs on steel!
Alibaba sells the exact lift delivered to my port for $2050
