Re: 2 Post Lift

If price is no object, then I think Mohawk makes one the best lifts. Asian (non certified) lifts usually undersize the pump so you never risk lifting too much. i.e a 9000lb lift might only have a pump capable of lifting 8000lb.

I have an older Rotary spo-88 in my garage. I would never think of trying to lift my diesel truck with it. I am not sure I would lift my 4x4 Suburban with it but it does fine with the Corvettes and Z-28

We have Rotary spo9's at the shop. They do lift my diesel trucks but you can tell there is that much weight. It seems to scare some people.

I would definitely look for a 10k or higher rating.

edit: I think most 2-post lifts are fine with 4" concrete but check the specifications.
