Default Re: Two post lift opinions

Folks,
Our shop was designed around a large 2 post lift. I was able to snag a used rotary brand truck lift from local tire and car repair store. It's a 12,000 lb symmetrical arm style.
Today was the first actual project. Had the F250 diesel on it to repair a worn steering component.
We installed the lift. Shimming the low side of the floor 1.5 inches due to floor drain slope.
I did look at new ones and I think installed they were about $10k to $12k.
Sounds like a good price on the 9,000 lb lifts.
I am a little concerned that this tool in the shop makes me take on more projects????
Regards,
Chris and Cheryl
