Where is all of this coming from? From my experience with 2 post lifts used on Model-As (-which is almost daily for the past 20 years), I have never observed any adverse situation regarding the frame. The only issue that you can encounter is the brake rods to the front will bend when the front axle is dangling however as soon as the vehicle is returned to the ground, the brake rod returns to its normal position. It definitely is not because the frame will sag or bend!!

As kinda stated above, the main reason for using a 2-post lift is for convenience of servicing components underneath the vehicle. It is not meant for long-term storage.
