Atlas BP8000 2-post car lift installation

[2Fast4You]

After 9-years in our home, I finally made it happen. Wasn't to bad, but the installation directions were horrible, good thing I can think outside the box. Hahahahttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20200331/e4d004419a8512600ec9d2b91e7fd31a.jpg

The BEST TOOL in the Garage!!

[draggin50]

My garage has 8 ft ceilings... Id love to have one but until I build another garage or buy a new place, Im stuck. My garages is 30x69 but in no ways do I have much of an option to put a lift in. I could probably do it in the back part but the concrete was already done and its pretty shallow.

I know I'll be able to currently raise the car 4'6" to 5', I'll find out shortly. Better than crawling underneath it while on Jack stands.

Funny Steve, you have multiple lifts in your garage. Haha

[Maximus]

Mine was 10'3" and I had the ceiling cut. But, I dont have any rooms above my garage.

Im jealous of both of you!!!

I have contemplated pouring a pad out in front of my garage and putting one outside. Ive seen it multiple times and the people Ive talked to actually like it. Im redneck as hell as it is and I don't live in a fancy neighborhood or anything so I wouldn't have any issues.

I don't think I could put one in the garage due to it being a pole barn. It would be offset to one side or the other and I wouldn't gain much room at all by boxing in the ceiling.

My old house had a 3 car garage and it was a Pole Barn. Just make sure your concrete is the required minimum thickness!

That's fine as well, you can help me clean and organize the garage.

What do you think about it so far?

Without modifying the ceiling, what is the distance between the floor and the bottom of the car? How tall is your ceiling now?

[cstreu1026]

I’ve got 12’ ceilings in my garage and Ive wanting to put a 4 post in since we moved in 5 years ago. I just need to extend the door tracks to the ceiling and go to a jackshaft opener on it.

I would have one if my ceilings were a little higher. Im getting too old to be crawling around on concrete any more!

[exrider416]

I raised my garage ceiling 2 years ago for a lift and was prepared to get my lift a month or so ago and then the cobra decided to steal all my fun money!! And it has sucked doing fuel lines and fuel tank work on the floor!

It's been fantastic, I'm able to get approximately 6' (give or take an inch or so) under the car with the ceilings at 10'3".

That's nice, you'll be so happy when you get one installed.

It took me 9 years to do it, it'll happen if you really want it to.

You'll have one eventually Brian.

[draggin50]

I hope so! May have to add on to the garage for one but that's an option! I could always use more space anyways!

See, you're already thinking proactively.

[draggin50]

I have to sell it to the wife first! Maybe talking it up here will build up my courage to run it past her!

Well Brian, any luck yet?

[draggin50]

Hahaha... I haven't even tried! She has been wanting a privacy fence, roof over the front porch, and new carpet in the hallway and the bedrooms. Maybe once those are done, Ill have a chance of getting mine! I would be happy as all get out with a lift though!
