YES, but all my stuff is either FULL aftermarket framed or has frame connectors and have full roll cage.

So how does the lift work for you? Is it stable? Did you bolt the post down?

Works great for me. Stable no issues. Had my '69 Nova lifted there for 10 months now. I DO however move it down and FULLY lower it about once every couple months just to let things equalize out. car has frame connectors and 10 point roll cage too. I did bolt it down.

Nice to have it fully extended and there is NOTHING on the floor to in the way for moving around. Mine in 9000lbs with overhead crossover. So while the car is raised, I can move carts, engine hoist or any other wheeled objects just like there is no lift there. And that comes in handy in my shop as it's a narrow car and a half wide, 2 1/2 cars deep.

Am I the only one wondering what a single post car lift looks like ? Maybe I need more coffee.

There are the way to classify:

Single hyd cylinder under car, like old gas station shops.
Single per side or 2-post lift.
Dual per side is 4-post lift.

To clarify mine is single per side.

EZ Nova, thanks for the reply.
I went ahead and bought a 4 post a guy nearby had for sale. It’s a Quality lift Built by a company owned by Snap On per the installer. Got the 7k pound lift two sets of ramps, one normal one set and one extended for low cars. Two rolling jacks that fit in the center of the lift. Aluminum center sections of I want to store stuff on the lift. (Never happen) all for $1500. Felt like it was a good deal. I will have to buy drip trays and pay $700 to have it installed.
