For those who may be interested, The guy who sells Direct Lift locally is toolmantim2008@gmail.com. I know numerous guys in the Pacific NW Camaro Club who have bought lifts from him. He will be at The Puyallup Swap Meet and have lifts to examine.

Cool. I purchased a Dannmar Max Jax 2 years ago through Costco. They also had one of their 4 post options but they don't any longer. It was free shipping but all that means is I had to haul it home from their freight center in Kent. Luckily it wasn't too far from me.

I'm thinking about getting a 4 post at some point in the future (for additional vehicle storage in an already over crowded garage), I was thinking Dannmar again since they've given me really good customer service but I would like to hear about the experiences others w/ their lifts and consider other options. Did you purchase the lift yet? What Direct Lift model were you thinking of?

I have not bought it yet but the lift I will get is the Pro Park 8. I know several guys who have this model. Like you, I want he ability to park a car under the lift when I am not using it for working on a car. I have to get my garage door modified to ride high up near the ceiling before I can make the move.

Yep, I hear ya. I've got to do the same. I've got an 8ft door but I need it to go up to go as flush w/ the ceiling in my garage (10') and a Liftmaster 3800 before I can consider 4 post and even then it would have to be limited to my Z and another car about the same height. I have the 2 post set up in the back 2 bays of the garage where the door isn't an issue. At my last place I had a 2 car garage w/ 7 ft doors, but strangely, the ceiling was 13' in the garage (house was built on a hillside) and I had to have the 7' door rerouted to go up another 5'.

The Pro Pack 8 comes w/ the caster kit? Nice! That's like $200 for other 4 post I've seen. I'll have to consider this when the time comes. I'd be interested in hearing about your experience when you get it.
