🏡 Better Homes Show your garage v 2022

I still have several of those tokens in my toolbox from inside the cans

This kinda shows how the garage doors were done to where they hug the ceiling. Also using side load garage door openers frees up a lot of space and let’s you mount the doors high. Also with the high lift you don’t have to open the garage doors all the way so if you have a big wing like mine you can stop the door short off hitting and still have enough opening to walk or drive freely. I have about 8” of space between the top of my head and the garage door hang from the opening.

could you back the upper one on instead?

Seemed to logical that I figured there was a reason he doesn’t.

Or have it one click lower since there’s feet between the cars.

I could load it the otherway but reason I pull it forward is I have a little mirror on the side of the lift so I can line up the car with the ramps and runners more easily. Just very use to pulling it forward. Before I had the black car I'd always park the car back on the lift if I was just pulling it into the garage.

I tend to hit my head on the lift if it's lower when I'm pulling a car underneath so having it as high as I can has that benefit

I’m digging the box of MOA services. The BG snake oil guy is gonna be upset

It was all old inventory that work gave me.

I don't know what to do with it. Lol

Is BG really that bad? I used their SyncroShift II fluid in the MT-82 trans in my Mustang and it made shifts feel a lot smoother over the factory fill.

7’ opening but the door hangs 6” below that so effective opening is 6’,6”

Speaking of lifts I had mine done I think 4-5 years ago and the prices have doubled on lifts I could prob sell mine and make all my money back and then some. Will did u hawk yours to Texas those MF are heavy I remember the guys that installed it put in work

I was on the fence on moving it to texas. Could have sold it easily but didn't want the headache of finding another one down here so I broke the lift down myself and my wife and I threw it in the back of a mayflower trailer. Dicey, would not recommend unless you have some extra hands but yes I brought it with us down to Texas.

 

[The Beast]

That’s not that bad what you did, I was planning on using the same guys I had mine installed to move mine in a few years when I move.

No it’s not “bad” but do people actually need coolant flushes at 50k? Throttle body cleanings every 20k? Random “shift improver technology” juice in their trans every 50k? All of this goes against factory recommendations. We just call them wallet flushes. If your throttle body is so dirty it’s affecting how your engine is running you have way bigger problems.

How tall is your garage it doesn’t look like u can stack cars with a lift u need 11.5-12 feet of room

Ceilings are roughly 10.5 foot tall, but this cross beam screws me out of a lift I think.

 

[willizm]

Yeah that beam is going to be a deal breaker unless you have enough room to move the lift up against the back wall and when the car is on the lift the beam is over the hood of the car.

That’s about the only way but one pic shows it doesn’t have a a lot of room

 

[Pro Stock John]

I measured so many times, I can't install a lift and store a car on it, not enough height.

 

[Stink Star]

I’m in the same situation. Would love to get a lift and be able to have a fun 3rd car but I have that same beam in the middle of my garage. Sucks too because otherwise my garage is tall as fuck.

edit, just measured- garage isn’t as tall as I thought. It’s just under 10’
beam is 8’4”

Don’t even measure again lol. U posted a pic of your garage no way that would happen.

Needs a UK spec 01/02 WRX model.

 

[The Beast]

The boy has an imagination he used napkins as car covers on his 1/18 scale cars in the past and now he upgraded to microfiber towels for covers.

 

[The Beast]
