Re: 4 Post Lifts
My dad bought a Direct lift this summer for his '67 Pontiac Beaumont, a Canadian version of the Chevelle. Along with a couple of other guys we installed it ourselves; it took 4 of us 4 hours to get it set-up from start to finish. There were no instructions included so we had to refer to a neighbor, who also has a Direct lift, to get the lift cables and safety release cables routed correctly. It took awhile to get it adjusted properly (as the garage floor wasn't perfectly level) so it sat level once the car was on it and each cable had the same amount of tension. And then the cables need to readjusted again once the car was on it for awhile as the cables stretched a bit. My dad loves it, just wishes it was a little faster lifting the car, it's a BBC car so it ain't exactly light. With the caster kit, the entire lift with the car on it, was easily moved tight against the wall for the winter.
