    Superlift update

    Finally got the stops installed on my homemade lift and painted it also. Used it to fix the exhaust on my work car today.

    Say Mustang0,

    Could I get some plans from you for your super lift? Looks like just what I need around here.

    When in doubt hit the accelerator, it may not be the right thing to do, but it will sure end the suspense.

    In the beginning, the Earth was without form, and void.
    When one picks up some wood or metal or stone and shapes it into something usefull
    ... I beleive that it has to be a deliberate effort to disavow a creator.

    As you work these, and join them, you feel the force and the will of He
    who formed and shaped the very resorces that you now add your will and force to.
    Further one surely can know when your will and force is not aligned with His.

    Ummm, his last post was only two weeks after the one above, was pretty active up 'til then. Wonder how much safety margin it has. Kinda ominous.

    Hope he's still around........

    I think he works at the new Power Plant.
    Might be on heavy O.T. if they have an outage.

    Power plant outage = eat, sleep, and work, mostly work.

    Unhappy

    Nice lift, hope it dosen't collapse while you're under it. Seriously, buddy, before you go under it, put a few jackstands under the car. If that cylinder or a weld lets go, it's pancakes for everyone. Ouch

    Superlift!

    Awesome! can I suggest some jack stands, just to be safe, although you may have to make them as high as that lift picked up your car. Good job!
