I have been looking at used ones too, but they all seem to be either really long, really wide or really tall. I just want the standard one but also have all the addons you typically get with a greg smith or bendpak. I don't want to hunt down odds and ends making a cheap lift the price of an on sale brand new lift with the right trimmings.

I have this one for over a year now. Only problem I've had is had to loc-tite the threaded rod that connects from front to back to actuate the locks. Overall a good lift and still don't have it bolted to the cement.

So far have used it with a buick century, camaro, explorer, tbss, civic, and just parked the ram on it the other day. The ram barely fit on the damn thing (mirrors had to go in), but it could lift it no problem with the 8k/lb capacity

Probably would've went to a slightly wider one if I had to do it all again. Maybe I'll buy the wider one and someone wants to buy this one off me? :wavey:

Does the wider one actually give you more width underneath to work with or does it just have the same open width under and wider steal runners?
