Single Post Car Lift for a 9 foot garage ceiling...

[ArabianOak]

Hi Gang,

I am in the process of trying to find a single post car lift so I can have the rex sit above the zr1. My current situation is I rent a storage unit locally for the rex and even though that works out fine I would like to have them both under one roof.

I see a few options out there but was curious what you guys have found/experienced. Here are the parameters;

1. Single post would be best (takes up less space)
2. Ceiling in the garage is only 9 feet tall
3. The rex only weighs 950lbs, so it doesn't need to be a high weight limit lift

With kids safety is really important.

My plan is to get a side mount garage door opener on that side to free up space for the single post lift.

Whatever you guys could find/rec'd would be great. I am planning to pull the trigger as soon as I find something.

Thanks in advance.

I have a Rotary 4 post lift and with a 10’ 6 ceiling, so I feel your pain regarding stuffing the toys in the garage. I’ll be interested to see what’s out there for single arm lifts. Good luck!

Something like this would be ideal just curious if it would lift the rex high enough for the vette to pull under it!

‘Do you know the thickness of the garage floor slab? Probable a very easy install with a hammer drill. It’s 110V, I assume.

I think my slab is 4 inches thick. And the zr1 is 49 inches tall. So this should work. My only concern is putting the rex on that until. Being a reverse trike I need to measure and make sure the wheels all fit etc.

Take the wing off the vette and you won’t have to lift the rex as high.

Well shit. You are about 2 weeks late. A guy in Cook County was selling a Mohawk single post lift for $1200 on Facebook marketplace. Would have been perfect for you....
