You're exactly right. I think there were 6 lifts total, but only one 10K lb. one.
I wish I'd have bought an extendable mobile oil change pan. I've been shopping for one, and even the plastic ones are a little $$.
As far as safety stops, yes, they're every few inches or so.
What's funny is, I left the truck on the lift for about 4 days, and after I let it down, it looked as if it had a 4" lift, at least for a half hour or so... <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" />
Anyhow, it's going to come in pretty handy.

I paid $900. I spent another $150 on epoxy, anchors, and the electrical parts & pieces to wire it right. I had a friend help me do the install, and the Bend-Pak site has downloads of the installation instructions, so that was a plus.

Thats perfect! I'm totally jealous too. I think thats probably even more exciting than getting another Montero. I def thought thats what you were going to have in your garage.

<img src="/forums/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" /> My old garage had 13' ceilings, new garage is 8' so not good for me. I wonder how my wife would feel about me installing one of these on our driveway <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/notooth.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/shiner.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" />

$900 is a smoking deal <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" />
