    I'm actively looking to purchase a home garage lift system. Before I purchase I'd like to contact qualified potential installers to discuss the equipment, scope of the project, etc. I live in an area that's fairly remote, but someone in the area from Jacksonville to Panama City would be the most likely candidates.

    Any suggestions and assistance are greatly appreciated.

    Thanks.

    If anyone knows of a shop where they installed their own lifts that might be helpful too.

    Thanks again.

    Thanks, Bill. I appreciate the input, but I'm pretty sure I'll need a pro to do this.

    I had seen that web site, but of course had no idea that I was looking at your garage! Very nice set-up.

    I would probably go to a small independent mechanic shop and ask who they use to install their lifts. I think the going rate is somewhere around $1,000-1,200 last I remember for the installation.

    I live just north of jax, I have a personal shop with a 2 post low profile bedpak I installed my self.
    The install was straight forward, the only tedious part was shimming it.

    you might ask the lift company I know when I bought my lifts I purchased them during the auctions in Scottsdale and they arranged an installer to come and with the new lift and install them I had two lifts installed with no trouble..and I live in Va..

    Thanks, Larry.

    Can you give me some details as to which manufacturer you purchased from, and which model?

    It has been a few years but they are superlift 800-5269992... I forget which model but they have a 7000 lb capacity four posted and I got the chrome package so they had diamond plate (chromed ) and chrome hardware they look nice in my garage but I do not know if they are still in business .....the install crew brought the lift with them and installed them in a day or so..
