12k Forward Lift 2 Post

TedRex · Jan 18, 2022

Stoked. I got the 12k 2 post Forward Lift installed. I can't wait to start using it on my fleet of toys. The TRX fits perfectly in it, so it's first on it for my 9k mile maintenance.

Next up 2500 diesel brake job.

Did I see that right that your ceilings are 14 feet? I’m looking into this for a new house I’m building, but ceilings are only 10 feet

Bottom of truss is just under 14'. 16' would be best. This is my farm shop. This lift has 4 settable heights. This one is at 168"/14' and I had to tuck it between the trusses.

Is that ballast in the bed to help balance the heavy Cummins up front?

I've had a couple of pucker-factor moments on my 2-post... including a buddy's F-250 crew cab long bed 6.4L that wanted to plant its chin on my floor.

Ha! That's the boxes of brake parts to get the job done. She is very stable on the lift.

In the manual, the first sentence is "what goes up, will come down".
