Getting Close!

Took this picture of my shop today. This is the first time in four years the shop has not had my 62 Flareside sitting somewhere on that floor. It's in the shop getting the E-leveling system installed to control the suspension air system. Hope it will be back next week so I can start the thing.

Jealous of the four post lift.... My 2 post gets me by, but a four post would be sweet. Also, the insulation would be nice....Getting there.

I read a post a while back where the fella said he didn't have enough room in his garage to change his mind. That's tight!

How you like the four post vs two ,4 doesn't let you change tires do brakes or pull suspension out does it ,I would think 2 would let you do more.

I have an air jack on the 4 post so I can raise or lower a side or both together. I have found nothing impossible to do except lift a body off the chassis like a two post can do.
