Just saw an ad for this on Facebook. I'm like "ain't no way this thing is $150 ($25 on sale), and actually works." I might have to look for a real (non scam, because I'm pretty convinced that it is a scam) place to buy one
manofsan it says no impact, however I e had to use it. I burned out a drill on this. I got an air drill but sometimes it is too weak for it. Seems to be binding a little somewhere.
@@SolveFixBuild so what kind of drill is recommended? I'm surprised that an impact wrench can't work, since it's got the most torque. If you could power the lift with an impact wrench, that would be ideal, since you can also use the impact wrench for bolts on the car.
excellent demonstration, so if it can lift 6000 lbs it can handle a car, I was concerned that not being for a "body on frame" it could be dangerous. I guess the concern is that tilted it could slide off?
It's meant for a unit-body vehicle but you could probably use the steel bar technique I used for any body-on-frame vehicle, provided the frame is taking the load and not the body.
Fulcrum is what popped into my head immediately. I think that's correct

Can you use an Impact Wrench? They produce a lot of torque. Or will it damage the screw on this lift?
Will only a rotary drill work?

impact will damage the threaded rod very quickly, I ruined a scissor lift with an impact, the jack seized up and I had to throw it away.@@manofsan
Did you have any issues with fluid leaking due to tilting the car?

It seems this item is discontinued.
Great video... Can you add a link to where you purchased it from. Thanks
ASE Deals, Automotive Service Equipment. You'll need to shop around on price, these guys were lowest when I got it. Seems to fluctuate from $900-$1100
Did u have to jack it up on the floor as im worried about crushing the floor
Frame or uni.
Do you think it can be used on a suburban?
No - see other video where it failed.
Do you think it will work on a C3 corvette?

🙏🏿
Where did you buy this for $850?
ASE Deals - watch the sites and wait for a promotion
How high is the top of the pad from the floor at full height

@@SolveFixBuild Thanks, saw that after I asked question.
How is it working so far, do you still recommend it?
Thanks
Kirk Frei yes I do! I’m moving my shop and I want a 4 post, but with this I question if I really need it.
Do you still like this lift?
Yes but I want a taller one in the new shop.
@@SolveFixBuild how do you keep it level?
How do you use this on a mercedes?
It has two pads that literally push on the bottom of a unibody car to lift it.
Triangles
fulcrum
Pivot
Yes! That's the word.
Your video sucks it's way to dark
looks exactly the same as original Autolift3000 (: www.autoliftproduction.com/en-us/
I think the two are competing / copy designs.
