    Outfitting the new shop/toy barn. Specifically looking for a Mohawk Sys-1A or A-7. Will entertain other systems depending on configuration. Note: I am limited by 10ft ceiling height. Why Mohawk?, well because I don't like cables. Need complete system (w/manuals) ready to install.

    Aren't the models you're specifically looking for available through the manufacturer or their authorized dealer network ?

    Sure. After freight, tax, and install >$20k. Looking for a pre-owned unit.

    WOW !?!
    It's been about 20 years, but the last 2-post lift (9000 lbs cap. Rotary) I bought was about $3500.00 delivered & installed, although watching the clowns contracted by the retail dealer, I should've opted without installation, especially since I had to instructed them through the entire process anyway (and had I not, it probably would've ended in disaster).
    It did/does require 12 ft ceiling clearance though, but IMO the design/engineering/manufacturing quality and performance is or was at the time far better than any other similar lift.
    I still used it almost daily and it works as good as it did the day it was erected.

    My first two post was a Mohawk, that was well built lift..sold it when I moved across the country.
    Today for the last 12 years I have a forward DP-10a also well built with zero issues.
    When I made the move out of CA I thought of selling the forward lift to avoid the transport once again until I observed the cost of replacement, glad I kept it and put it back to work. Hands down best tool in the garage.
    OP good luck with your search.

    I had a MaxJax for a while, because I had limited ceiling height that worked very well and seemed very sturdy!
