*CAR LIFT WARNING*

[Jarhead Steve]

I have multiple friends with Greg smith lifts, all have good things to say.

Just saying be careful with what you are ordering/doing with your lift is all.

I got the bigger base plate lift as well, because I only have 6" of concrete as well and the smaller lift has a smaller floor plate.  I figured the more distributed the weight is the safer Id be.  Honestly its ok for cars and maybe half ton trucks but 9klbs, I dont think so.  Lol, i put my 06 crew cab long bed 4x4 dually duramax on it, just to lift a few inches to do a tire rotation, scary to say the least, and thats a few lbs under 9k.  Seems to me they should be underrated not overrated.

my buddy had an Eagle 2 post that looked just like that one in the video.. Was rated for 12k .. Put his dually pick up on it an went to loft it up.. Lift was goin up but not the truck !!!   Arms bent.. was a common thing back then with Eagles.

I have bought a Atlas BP8000 from Greg Smith one year ago and I cannot be happier.

I had height restriction but wasn't interested by the MaxJax so the Atlas BP8000 looked to be perfect for me and I knew at $1400.00 it was made in China but I gave it a try.

After 1 year of use I have had "0" issue .
I'll recommand this lift to anyone who is looking for a none commercial and inexpensive kit for his home.

Worth lift in my garage, also considered a big foot Mohawk.  I paid more for American made and it's beefy as hell, had the largest feet of any 2-post lift I could find for my piss ass concrete.  One day I'll make up a spanner to connect the tops of the two posts for added security.  I keep an inclinometer on the posts and never see any change even when I had my F150 on it.  I do take care to ensure the weight is  distributed evenly front to rear.  If your lift has small feet like the ones I see in most pics, well, I just could not buy one of those.  I have seen some shop lifts with large beams on the floor aft of the verticals to help prevent the overturning moment, nice feature.  Best wishes to all of us with lifts, I still get nervous at times when I'm under the car.
