new toy

Chat about all things Bonneville (and related cars). Off-topic stuff should be in the lounge, and all mechanical problems should be posted in the proper forum.

Nice. You'll love it. Just be sure to get it square, level and tightened down. Don't need to have it tip over with your prized possession on it. :wink:

What brand is that? 10,000lbs? Extra tall or wide? Let us know how you like it. I'm in the market for one too.

Trent, FWIW, ours is a Bend-Pak Asymmetric 10k 2 post. It's not extra wide or tall, but we could probably squeeze our C60 on it, but we've never tried. It's not really big enough for that. We got it on sale for around $2800 shipped. I'd call them and see what they have and the deals they can get you. We got it directly from Bend-Pak.

You will need a tractor/forklift/skid-steer with pallet forks to get it off the truck, but I don't think that's gonna be a problem for you guys, lol.

the brand is called auto lift. i got it from bestbuyautoequipment.com for 1399 plus shipping. it is a 9k low clearance lift and looks like it is very well built for the price. i would have loved to have had a bend pak, they are the best, but didnt have the money for one of those.
