Unless you build some type of shelving or mezzanine setup, I could see it being not justified. I know you could put the money to more useful tools.

The new Garage

I'm tired of working in my tiny 2 car garage so I'm finally building a big (30'x60') shop to work in.
I set both of my previous lifts with my engine hoist. By myself. So if you get it on your trailer, you should be good to go.
I also have the crane on the shop truck.
That would work nice.
The shop truck can earn its keep, it's the first thing that will go on the lift for a painless wiring kit and an LS swap.
What are you going to do with the HolleyEFI on it?
I'm planning on selling the whole thing as a running unit if I can. I'm really disappointed in the Sniper system, they somehow designed an EFI that idles worse than a carburetor...
One of the unexpected benefits of the cabinets is that it really broke up the echo chamber effect in the garage. It's so much quieter in there with the cabinets, so I'm pretty happy about that.
Santa came early!
Now we've just got to figure out how to install it

Taken down and put up a few . There not bad .
Easy = big equipment to lift from top and tilt in place .
Not to hard 3 to 4 people to walk up and 1 for control from tip over .
Stay safe and pop it up and have fun with it .

Does this lift make my shop look small?
I used the crane on the back of the shop truck to break down the packaging and stand up the uprights. From here it's pretty easy to shuffle them into position by myself.
Getting the top bar up will be a little more difficult, but at least it isn't that heavy.

Nope cause i know how big those lifts are . . Shop looks just right .
Looks good.
I did 2 with engine hoists, by myself. The fork lift was much easier.

Wow, those are tall!
Yes, it's one of their extra tall lifts with 75" of lift.
I just figured they looked extra tall because, well, Amber is standing next to them.
That's the 5' measuring stick for reference
After I made my post I realized it might sound like I was making a joke about Amber's height.
You wouldn't be the first to. Even Wade towers over her.
