    Its not really smooth as it goes up and down. It appears to be the cross bars aren't sitting level. I think it just needs a car on it to force everything to settle.

    It *just* reaches the first locking notch on the the power post as the power post rams hits the roof of the shed. this still leaves it supported by the cables either way.




    some linkage pins. with the pins in .... everything is locked into the mechanical locks up the sides of the post.




    so we are mechanically locked in.




    and if I pull the pins, the wheels free beams lock in and the ramps drop away. I'm not sure how much use the wheels free beams will be, they may sit too high for modern cars. I'm betting the poogoe 407 doesn't have the clearance to drive over them. I guess I will find out soon

    There isn't much concrete in this floor. no wonder it gets damp in winter. The bolt holes I drilled in the front corner post hit water with barely any concrete depth. This means there is no support at all under the front corner of the slab.

    This thing a just brilliant .... I wish I'd found one 30years ago!







    Talk about making checking oil levels and greasing all the grease points (as you can spin the tail shafts etc).
