Default Car Lift

I saw this in the scca mag.

http://www.ezcarlift.com/

It says up to 4,000lbs. In the air 26in.

I really haven't checked around are there more options like this?

Interesting, but it looks like it would take longer/is more compilcated than a jack and stands, and doesn't provide any advantage over jack stands.

Maybe if they made one that lifted the car like 4 or 5 feet in the air for <$1000... but for $2000 (only $300 or so more than this deal) you can get a real lift.

Acutally: http://www.americasprideonline.com/2...1-.ViewProduct

There's a 2-post 7,000lb lift for the same price as that giant screw jack!

Yah but you need room for a 2-post lift.

Not to mention the Ferrari.
