There are plenty of videos and almost all are with 2-post lifts.

Never had a car come off for me, but I've seen plenty through others incompetence.

My brother in law had one drop all the way down from the top next to him. He used to just lift the hoist and not lower it down to the safety catch. When the hoist dropped it got a run up which made the safety either jump or sheer of the catches. He now has a pit. I now lower it onto the catches every time.

Has anybody got any experience using a full height scissor lift type. Some can be mounted into the floor to leave a totally flat surface. Can be moved around when not needed.

Hi

I was told that they are not approved for working under.

Just next to - as in wheel changes.

Really. They look pretty solid with a large safety ratchet. Guess I'll be looking into 2 posters. Any body dealt with tufflift or peak hoists?
Molnars are twice as expensive.
