That's my skirt clearance behind my front tire now. Oh well hahaha.
Yeah, yeah, I know it's dirty...drove through a couple puddles since the last wash.

If anyone is seriously going to order one let me know. There is a $200.00 discount for referencing from previous buyer to Autolifters.

I purchased the low pro 8000. My dad has an F350 too--if you don't own a truck that big you can save yourselft a hundred or so and get the low pro 6000. But for a hundred more why not have extra assured power to lift the bigger vehicals.
In addition, remember shipping is a couple hundred and more if you don't have a way to unload the semi that brings it. I sent it to the warehouse were my dad works and from their we tore it down.(shipping pallet) Cared it home in a pick-up truck. Each column is about 800 lbs. the total pallet and all was 1500 lbs. shipped. (Total cost was around 2500.00 for the lift shipped.)
The only thing needed to install one is 4" thick garage floor concrete, and clearance to meet the top of the lift column. Lifts can be ordered to run on 110 (normal household power outlet) or 220volt. We built the garage knowing a lift was coming in a year or two so we wired the garage for 220v to make the lift run faster. My dad is an electrician so, again we didn't pay to have it wired in. In theory you could stick an outlet head on the end of the lift wire and maybe plug it in with an extension cord. But per code I think that is a no-no
You will also need to rent a hammer drill from Home depot to set the floor lag bolts if you don't own one.
