Hello All,

When two friends of mine and I put the four post Backyard Buddy together, I plugged into 110VAC and after putting the hydraulic fluid in the tank I was using it.

I helped another friend install a two post lift into a garage with 10' ceilngs, after working out where the posts would sit, drilling the twelve holes into the concrete with a heavy duty drill/impact hammer and having the 240VAC installed, he was also using it 3-4 weeks later.

Point is that the installations are very different and you need to make the decision on what you plan to use the lift for. If it is storage and work under the car the four lift will fit your needs; if you are looking at storage and lot of suspension/tire work the two lift may be better suited. With the four post you can get the integrated tire jack and still get the advantages of both. Some would argue that the two post allows for more room to work around the car. I believe it is your situation that determines which will work for you and your planned use.

Think it through now, you will have it in your garage for a long time.
