so i ordered a Bendpak model HD-9XW 4 post lift today from Summit Racing. it runs off of a single phase 220 volt which my shop has 7 outlets for. $3010 shipped to my door :thumbsup
it can lift every vehicle i own including my F-250 Superduty as it is oversized in length and width and can lift 9,000 lbs. high enough that i can walk under it :biggrin
the ceiling height in my shop is 12 feet high.
i will post pix of the install, etc. next month....
here is a link to it >
