See what you think and let me know.

That's the two post version. Issues with the GT can be clearance and the general setup to insure you place the arms on only the 4 (not 6) lifting points. If your're placing another car on top I'm sure it has to be easier than setting up a two post with the GT. I am looking for a four post with ramps for the garage this winter where you dont have to mess with the arms or worry about the lift points. :cheers

I have lots of lifts like that and different one's and not one of them will reach the lift points. The boards will work (yes you will need wood board's to get the clearence) and you can't see a thing so it's trial and error untill it is up and then you can see if you hit or not the lift point.
but everyone I have tried the lift arms will not reach. Get the 4 post.

Hmmmmmm.... I never even considered that point. Back to the drawing board for now.

Thanks

Direct lift (Eagle) is a great choice. Make sure to purchase the aluminium ramps with it. I use it for my GT. It's the best tool purchase I have made. It's so easy to work on the car with a stable and safe way to raise it to any hieght.

I am considering purchasing the jack to raise the car off its wheels. Check out this link. http://www.directlift.com/auto_lifts/projack3500.html
