4 post lift real world recommendations

Hi all,

Yes I have searched, Looking for real experiences, the good, the bad, and the ugly. I am looking for recommendations on a 4 post lift to lift a 71 C-10 long bed and parking a 4x4 taco under. Thanks for all your assistance with this! I appreciate your insight and experiences.
All the Best Dirk

Re: 4 post lift real world recommendations

4 post and parking a 4x4 toyota under it when up . . . . better check real close on lift heights . all my years in shops that wouldnt happen there to low under . yes lots of cars can fit under them tho .

now a 2 post lift leaves more options and a bit more room under them . but then factor in suspension drop .

Re: 4 post lift real world recommendations

Been out of town, thanks for the info. fellers, this would be easier if I was parking a car below. The last car I owned was a VW Golf in 2002. My world has been Jeep TJs, 4runners and a 4X4 Tacoma since 2008. thanks for sharing your thoughts!
Regards,
Dirk

I doubt you can get a lowered Taco under a 4 post lift
