I've read through other posts, especially this one: 4-Post Lift Recommendation
Those were very helpful in regards to four post lifts.
Besides choosing a company, the next issue is getting it delivered and installed.
I've seen some people mention companies will ship it to a depot, and you can...
It was talked about here with the torque shaft and it's bushings being good, which I agree is a good thing to check.
I've noticed on some new replacement kits, that the springs that locate the bushings don't always line up with them. What's the point of these springs that go on the outside of...
Thanks guys!
I went with a slightly rougher concrete finish. Gives me options on what to do with the floor now.
Still working that out but I'll relay what I decide to go with!
Thanks guys!
To answer what the space will be used for, mainly parking but I will be doing maintenance and things like that in the space. Won't be doing dozens of engines, but basic maintenance with jacks and jack stands will occur. Probably just a few engine builds at most.
I do plan on...
Hello all,
I am going to have the concrete poured in my garage next week. I want to coat the floor (once it's fully cured) and was wondering what others have done.
I've heard of:
1. Smooth finish and sealing the concrete
2. Epoxy sealers
3. Polyaspartic sealers
I've gotten some quotes for an...
If you’re still using the existing studs, I believe it’s ok.
From my understanding, the fear is when you use the studs that are on a spacer and not through the hub itself. Because then the load is distributed onto the studs vs the hub itself.
Thanks for all your help! Went well!
Does anyone have any pics of a manual trans crossmember? I’ve put it back both ways, and one way the rubber support bushing didn’t line up right, and the other way the cross member doesn’t line up right.
Of course I forgot to take a pic before taking it...
That's a tough one cause as you said, to each their own.
How is the rest of the car? If it's for the car in your profile pic, that car looks pretty stock (wheels, paint, interior, etc..) Maybe that'll help you decide?
Don't think you'd go wrong with either option though.
I am removing the 4 speed in a 67 GTX. Got everything disconnected, but just wanted clarification on where to support the engine while the trans is out.
I currently have a block of wood under the oil pan, on the sump (deeper part of it), right by where the drain plug is. Is this the best place...
Ya I can see 4 fitting but I just hope they're not so close to each other that it prevents working on them.
And good point, I can see a lift taking up more room. I know some 4 post lifts have casters on them so they can be moved. Not sure it that can be done with ease though.
Yes, I believe my...
You're definitiely right how every foot matters. Thanks for your specs. With one car you must have a dream amount of room to be able to work on projects!
Seems like from what I've been reading above (all very helpful), 3 cars is doable, 4 makes it very tight. I would get a 4 post lift for some basic maintenance/additional storage. That might be the way to get to 4, so not be able to have 4 cars in a row.
Seems like overhead storage should be a...
