I've got a large garage with 10 ft ceilings, the garage door is 8 ft high and the track is within 12 inches of the ceiling. Are there any floor-lift systems that can handle the weight of an Excursion/SD truck? I realize I won't be able to walk under the vehicle, but getting the whole vehicle 2 or 3 feet up in the air without using floor jacks and jack-stands would be a huge help..

The concrete floor was a standard 4" slab pour with wire mesh-type rebar.

Thanks!

 

Could you/would you consider going down, since up may not be an option? Maybe a pit?

 

Most of the low-rise, mid-rise parellelogram or scissors lifts are 6,000 lb. which isn't enough capacity for an Excursion but might be enough for an empty pickup.

You can get low-rise (24-30 inches) lifts in the 10,000 lb. range.

I'm considering something like the two above for myself.

Great, all I kept finding were lifts that needed 11 feet.. And the price is right.


The garage is already built, so going down isn't an option.
Thanks guys.
