Not Ranked
Wayne,
I've had a Bend-Pak for about 10 years now and it has been trouble-free. I like that I can move it around the garage to accommodate either 2 or 3 cars parked there. You will lose that flexibility if you set it in concrete, so to speak. On the other hand, I have to use 2X12 planks to drive the cars up on in order to clear the safety latch, as Ted has mentioned above. The Ferrari requires one plank on each side; the Cobra needs two each side. The recently sold Alfa Romeo didn't need the planks at all.
Imagine a couple of 2X12s linked by a 2X4 to make an "H" and with small coaster wheels attached to the tops of the 2 by 12s. That's what I've jury-rigged to move the planks if I want to move the lift, plus the 2X4 keeps the 2X12s at a set distance from one another.
Cheers,
Mark
