I was shopping around for a lift and the only ones nearly affordable new were the Chinese made ones. I thought about it pretty hard, and decided.. fuck China.

I'm trucking in five lightly-used Rotary two post lifts the end of next week.
I'm going to sell 3-4 of them. Fully hydraulic. They're the overhead support style, so it's a clear floor.

I'm selling them for (EDIT: Lowered to $2,000) a piece. American made.

Call me at 313-903-2963 to snag one.

I'll grab you guys pics when they come in. I don't know the production year on them yet. They'll probably have build tags, so I'll get it from that. I'm going to pick them up Friday morning.

They're all asymmetrical. I actually believe they all all extra tall. I'll have to find that out when I see them.

I'll be sure to give you a call, Rich.

Do you know how tall they are from the floor to the top, meaning how tall does my garage ceiling need to be?

Thanks....Gary

As it turns out, we're going to pick up the lifts next Thursday. I'll let you know when they come in.

Nevermind, the lifts are in. We've safely trucked them here and unloaded them.

After the huge costs of bringing these lifts back, I'm going to need to raise the price to (EDIT: $2,200, Lowered from $2,500). I'm selling three of them. The costs of diesel was extreme. Added to that the costs of hotels, food and a few supplies and I'll just break even on the deal after a ton of really grueling labor.

They're in Really good shape. If anyone would like to come see one or needs to ask questions, please call me at 313-903-2963

Is there any way you can give us the physical total height and width of these units? I'd still like to know if it will fit into my garage....

Thanks....

I haven't gotten to taking measurements yet. I'll do that first thing tomorrow morning and get back to you.

The width required is 12 feet. The very top of the lift is just under 12 feet tall.
If you don't have the required width, the manual has instructions for removing 11" of width to make a narrow bay install.

Here's the pieces disassembled.

Everything for installing one lift is included. I have the installation manual in digital form that I can send you.
These are sold first-come, first-serve. I've got a ton of interest on them so far, they're going to go quick.

You can take off the top box and make these shorter - if that helps..

We are about a month and a half from moving. If my car sells before that, you'll be hearing from me. I have a pole barn that one of those would look awesome in.

Bump. I still have three of these for sale.

Lifts will be cleaned of grease and neatly organized with all installation hardware. I'll even throw in proper, high-grade the cement bolts (which are usually about $10 a pop x16 bolts.)

$2,000 takes one away. Call me at 313-903-2963.

That's cute and all: these are what I'm offering at this price. I'm willing to haggle in person, but I won't give them away because a multi-million dollar corporation is shedding gear at scrap prices.

EDIT: Also, I don't see any of those lifts on eBay through Roush.

To make this easier: I'm willing to off a lift for $1650 if in cash before next Tuesday. It'd be nice to have some cash before I spend a week out West on business. After that, we're back to retail.

Thanks, man. Exactly what I was thinking.

$1,500 takes a lift away. $4,250 for all three.

I don't have a measurement on how big the legs are, but they're fucking beef.

Back up. $1500 a piece. $4000 buys you 3.
