4 post lift vs. 2 post lift. Pros and Cons.
The next lift I buy will be A scissor lift or a parallelogram.
Has the advantage and safety of a four post, and the less obstruction of a 2 post.
Both my 4 post have jacks, and it’s incredible what you can accomplish.
I’m geared toward alignment and brake suspension repair, so I am biased in that regard.
Both have there advantages and disadvantages.
I personally don’t like to get on my knees every time I pull a vehicle on and off is one of my main complaints.
As far as safety a 4 post is hands down way safer.
The Hunter lift I have is one of the best lifts I’ve seen. Probably the safest also.
The Bendpack I have is a monster and will lift 27,000 pounds, and yet do a Volkswagen Karmin Ghia, or S-10 Chevy or A body.
The little pad lift I bought from Snap-on has been pretty handy and diverse. And able to pick up 6,500 pounds.
I started my business with the Bendpack due to the diversity. Semis to small cars it does em all.
