Default Re: MaxJax 2 post car lift

I think we can all agree that nothing is 100% safe as all equipment is built by humans and we are far from perfect. If my garage would have had a tall enough ceiling and more floor space I would have likely went with a 4 post lift or a commercial 2 post.

I lost a high school buddy over 20 years ago who was working under a car supported with cement blocks. It is not something I take lightly.

Here's my Wildcat on the Max Jax with the bridges I designed and built to reach the narrow X-frame. I am sure the makers of Max Jax would not condone this. The car was supported like this for ~4 months.
I do have several tall support stands for safety purposes so the real danger is during the raise and lower cycles.
