Cheap 2 post car lift


Many of our customers have a question about which type of cheap 2 post car lift is better - baseplate or overhead? The answer is: as the case may be!

Cheap 2 post car lifts are relatively easy to install. They require a flat floor and a solid concrete base for bolting. A thick steel plate sits approximately one inch off the ground to cover the hydraulic lines and electrical cables. While this low ramp is easy to drive over, it can make it difficult to move a dolly, jack, or transmission hoist between the columns.

One advantage of a cheap 2 post car lift is that an overhead cross member doesn't limit the height. The maximum height of your lift will be dictated by the capacity and design of the lift, the height of the columns, and the space under your ceiling. However, a baseplate-type cheap 2 post car lift can accommodate tall vehicles with bed caps, light bars, roof racks, and other roof-mounted features.
An additional advantage of the overhead style of cheap 2 post car lift is that there is no obstruction on the ground. If you spend a lot of time under a vehicle on the lift — either on a rolling dolly or with a jack — you'll appreciate the clear, open floor space. When there's no vehicle on the lift, it's also easier to use the space between your lift than the baseplate model, with its low but sometimes intrusive steel plate.
