I am in the business of servicing and maintaining vehicle hoists. Unless you buy a 2 post vehicle hoist in the high end of the market I would not recommend installing one. I am talking seriously from a safety point of view.
I remember some time back members were discussing buying vehicle hoists. On the off chance some one bought a RADUM 2 post, there is this information, Bob

I’m pretty sure the dinosaurs died out when they stopped gathering food and started having meetings to discuss gathering food
A bookshop is one of the only pieces of evidence we have that people are still thinking

I was up at Farmfest at Caboolture in Qld.a short while ago,and picked up their paperwork for a friend it looked a little light for what he needed/wanted,but I have seen their manual wheel changer in use,seemed OK.
I hope they've sorted themselves out as I'm off to look at their 4.2t two poster tomorrow.

That was disappointing.
I was told they're closing down their Sydney branch & they had some 2 posters going cheap because of this & some change to regs regarding earthquakes.
As it turns out, these 'cheap' hoists are actually the un-fixed recall hoists & they're not certified for use anywhere.
The salesman didn't mention the recall until I asked about it & didn't mention the failure items in the recall, just that the arms needed replacing.

wonder if my ex employee is still the sales manager.....

Now, maybe.
Soon, maybe not.
Radum are closing their Sydney branch due to an employee stealing a lot of money & gear from the branch. The family running the business are planning on downsizing & sticking with their Melbourne business only.

Don't know, the guy there today (part of the family & looking after Sydney until it closes) only mentioned Sydney, Brisbane & going back to their roots in Melbourne.
I didn't realise they were all over Australia; I hadn't even heard of them until a few days ago.
