I have a body kit on my car that gets in the way for a traditional car lift. I took it to two merchants shops, one lift cracked the kit and the other shop said we can't do it.Unfortunately I don't blame them too much since I chose a car with a kit, and please hold your opinions on body kits. I'm looking for a shop in my area that may have a lift suited to my car that won't interfere with my side skirts, or a specific name of a lift.unless all car lifts are pretty much the same?thanks in advance
custom oh YES YOU gotta call the lift doctor ?? YEAR MAKE MODEL ?????
any okorder has. they also will help you with all your problems and help you choose the right parts for your tires and rims.
We have a 10000 pound twin post lift and here's what we do..... I have 4 wood blocks that are shaped like wedges on one end, I position them at the exact location of where I want the wheels to go..... I have a staff person drive onto these blocks which raise the car 4 inches....... Then we swing the arms under the car at the lifting locations on the frame...... I then put 4 wood blocks on top of the lifting pad, then hit the up button real slow while the helper looks under to make sure it clears....... 8 Wood blocks is all you need.... No special lifts required.......
Yep them 4 arm lifts will do up a side kit real quick. You need someone with a drive on rack. Like good alignment shops/frame shops use. Instead of arms, you drive up on two tracks. Lift's the whole car on the tires. Jacks built into the lift can then access the suspension from the bottom and inside the body kit to lift it if need be. Use for alignments, exhaust work, oil changes, and all kinds of stuff at our shop. Mostly cause the techs are too dang lazy to use the 4 arm racks. Too easy to just drive up on the lift and hit a switch and up it goes.
