Another lift..
« on: October 09, 2012, 06:19:33 AM »
Yesterday was my birthday so I thought I would upgrade my lift table. I had been looking at the Pro Cycle lifts but the truck freight made the cost prohibitive. Add to that you have to load 700 pounds off the dock at the terminal.

As luck would have it one came up on CL, about 50 miles from me. Made a cash offer and was on my way. The real "present" if you will was a separate jack with ATV plate.  ;) 8)

I assembled this lift this morning by myself. What a job.  ;D  Need a few bolts from the hardware store for the rear ramps.

Now I'm hoping I can get my truck into the garage without removing the side extensions.  :o The chock will need to be removed obviously.

This is the  Pro Cycle XLT DT. Side extensions, drop table and chock. Should work nice. Harbor freight lift table goes on CL when finished with the CBX.

Happy belated Bday, John!  Nice way to spend the day, chasing down bike stuff.  New lift looks great, jealous.

Truck fits!

Had to remove the rear ramps but it does fit. Next on the list is install oil filter cover, add oil and a little gas then fire this CBX up!

Only way I could manage a lift in my garage would be to recess it into the floor.  Don't think my MINI would clear that :)  Nice lift!

I saw a 2 door mini yesterday. It was way cool! Not sure what model but it had a lower roof line and a S badge.

Cool. Very cool.

Nice looking lift. Wish I had the room in my garage between all the junk, cars, bikes and parts.
