I had a 10,500 lb hamecson(spelling) 2 post lift. It was fine lifted hondas with ease. It looked like every other 2 post so i'm sure it wasn't the best out there. But it wasn't bad on the price, plus they only charged $400 for delivery and install. About 200 mile trip to where i was at.

My dad picked one up from a guy whose wife was fucking him over in the divorce-- she was going to get everything, so he just sold all his shit apparently.  I think he got it for $1200 with an engine stand and a transmission jack, and we threw the whole thing in the bed of his f250 and drove it home.  It was easy enough to setup too.  i think we had 4 guys when we did it to be able to move the posts around n shit.  Forget the brand, but it was one thats made in southern ny somewhere.  moral of story:  watch newspaper and craigslist for one

NO way. How does that work, the bend pak looked way beefier. Looked very similer to my old hamecson(spelling).
