How are you finding that lift Alex?

i notice that it's different to mine in that it uses air. Is it working OK for you and giving you the underneath access you need?

It works well! So far, it has not blocked anything or been in the way.

It only uses Air to release the lockers, which is a bit silly, but I will permanently plumb it into the compressor at some point, to avoid moving the airline constantly.

I did a clutch on a berlingo van that the owner (my mate!) had left full of plumbing stuff and it was fine.

Forgot to mention, the drive on ramp extensions (pictured replicated in wood) are a requirement for MB's at least.

Bit like trying to get a trolley jack under the jacking points of my 968 cab, had to buy a low entry one as my Sealy 2 ton jack was too tall!
