Cheap lifts?
Nobody deals with lifts around here (south suburbs of Chicago)
there is an air compressor place near here.
I know that Napa has a shop equipment catalog that includes lifts as does Grainger
But even without buying a "cheap lift" I guarantee you can find a better deal than either of those places. Working for the state we've dealt with both of those places for lift equipment.
The only other place anywhere near Chicago i know of is Rubber inc. they're right in Chicago itself.
I've heard there's a company in the North suburbs that deals with lifts but nowhere to the south where I'm at
