By everything, you also mean acute back problems!

no sh#t I need one of those! The most painful part of working on the Cobra (I don't have a hoist) it not working underneath it, it is hauling my sorry ass up off the creeper.....

Now that is very cool, thanks Russell.
Is there a self-leveling stubby holder option for the home workshop model?  |

Jaydee,
The idea was good but cost was a problem and as far as I can recall, you could get a four poster and Ferrari for the same price. Needless to say it never became a commercial success but what a bloody good idea. |

I looked into a hoist but the garage roof wasn't high enough. There were two steel beams in the way too. bugger.

my shed has the old truss system roof. My hoist then only raises the average car about 2.5 to 3 feet off the ground (the Cobra is fine between the trusses) that height is much better than sliding around the garage floor...I recommend a hoist |
