I keep reading that they are, but wasn't sure if the tendency of people to do stupid things like work under a vehicle supported only by a Hi Lift had contributed to this reputation, and by how much. I'm also a bit leary of the apparent "handle ratcheting rapidly up and down in your face under load" <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/shiner.gif" alt="" /> issue. I do need to replace my 2 ton come along, though, and had the Hi Lift in mind. Any thoughts? Any injuries?
