Tight fit!

Had to shuffle things around a little so the lift tech can bolt my lift down tomorrow. Getting the 67 in the small bay was a tight fit for sure!

Thanks guys!

Well, I did make an offer on something the other day Pete 😀. So, maybe...

Mark, I the only issue I can see with the small bay is you should have backed it in?? That way you can be tighter to the wall and have more space by the bike to open the door!

What lift did you buy? I'm looking at a 8000 4 post later this year or early next.

Hey EZ,

I usually back a 993 in that bay, but the Camaro is a little wider and that bay is only 8 ft wide. I felt more comfortable driving in front first. So I just climbed out the passenger side. Reminded me of going parking in high school :)

That’s an Atlas 8000 EXT. Made by Direct Lift and has the same foot print but lifts to 84 inches instead of 70 like the std lifts.

The installer is here now plumbing up the posts and anchoring it down. Get a transit and shoot your floor before you buy a lift so you know if you need full size shim plates to correct the slope.

I’ll post a lift thread when the install is complete.

My buddy is a factory rep and service guy for Toyoda CNC machines. He's got all that stuff for there installs and helps my with it when needed. We did that for my current 2 post and it was good. But trying to buy the shop and will be moving to a bigger shop and have BOTH lifts there. 4 post is more storage area where as the 2 post is better "working" lift.

Good luck.
