If you're looking I would strongly urge you to look into 2post lifts rather than 4post lifts. Depending on what you are using it for, a 2 post could suit you better.

Yea, the 2post bolted in are plenty solid, just that for various load rating the depth changes. And it's a lot more permanent. For work (aside from the obvious complexities of having the wheels off) I can't tell you how many times I've cursed the wide drive up rails, impeding access underneath. Don't get me wrong, having a lift is great, but if I were building from scratch, a 2 post will be in the works from the get go. FWIW, storing a car on just the feet is totally fine (provided you are on proper jack points)

Also, if you got a 2 post lift, I could come borrow it, and Al could come all over it

trust me 2 post is what I'd WANT, but probably not what I'm gonna get. Plus parking with those posts mid door would be a pain in the ass, much like the one in Al's when he's doing warm ups for Sunday Cream Club
