    Adding a lift. I know there have been lots of threads on lifts, but looking for the latest recommendations, pros/cons, etc.
    Looking at Bendpak and Backyard buddy.
    (My space has zero restrictions as ceilings are 18+ ft and this bay of my garage is 45x30.)

    If money and space is not an issue ..bendpac ..professional level with air locks and wider ...faster (220 vs 110)


    If you are looking at backyard buddy might as well look at atlas lifts ..same class cheaper and work just as well

    I've got three Bendpaks. It's a nuisance having to keep them connected to an air compressor. Service guy just told me that one of my Bendpaks needs two new cables. They stretched under the weigth of an M3 after a few years.

    I have two Rotary Direct Lifts and they are ALI (American Lift Institute) certified lifts.

    I just had 2 Backyard Buddy’s installed. They are super solid, and don’t require a compressor to unlock. They are more expensive than Bendpaks and the other Chinese made lifts, but for me, it was worth it to go with an American made product. I wish I had better pictures, but I suck as a photographer.
