Moving a 4 Post Lift

[dfrazz]

I recently sold my 4 post to my friend who has a lot more room than me and only lives 10 minutes away when I need to use it. We didn't want to disassemble the whole thing, move it and then have to reassemble it. After some careful measuring, we put it on a flat bed. Here is how we did it -

NICE.

Another way is to raise the deck, back a flat bed trailer under it and then lower the deck down onto the trailer. 4 good ratchet straps, one on each post base, and raise the posts up. Strap it down and go. Destination, pop the straps and lift the deck back up and drive out from under it.

Good job. I wish mine could have been moved like that. I had to disassemble and bring it back on a car trailer as it was down near Baltimore then reassemble it…

Cool beans. If you don’t mind me asking, what was the flatbed charge?

I moved mine across town on a rollback. It was 17 years ago and I don’t remember the cost but it was easily worth it at the time.
