Sir, what brand is this. Fantastic setups.

All the hydraulic lifts I have are 4 post models made by Bendpak


Unfortunately due to tariff increases, the prices have gone up considerably since I installed mine.

I installed them myself but professional installation is available and reasonably priced.

I would want a diagonal brace going down to the sill plate just to make it stronger. There will come a time when engaging or disengaging the grapple to the tractor doesn't go as planned and extra weight is applied to the shelf. It is nice to stack items to make more room though.

Great Picture. I even think there is a shelf for storage. But I can't look at it. I can't take my eyes off that ladder!! That is great. I know that cannot be supporting the lift on the right side, but heck, it is great to look at. Great, made laugh. Oh, buy the way, nice shelves, I see them now.

Ha! I had to look at what you were talking about the ladder holding up the right side....LOL. It does look like that...doesn't it. No, both sides of the hoist is the same and it is a 2 ton. The snowblower that is on the far right now fits under the left side of the shelf and the tiller is under the right side. I did add another shelf way up on top of the 4 center 4x4 posts too. I can put all the light stuff way up there.

We all collect stuff and it gets to be a PITA if we have to move stuff every time we do anything. The tiller and blower are on rollers so it is easy to get them in position to get them mounted.

Pallet racks are often available and inexpensive to pick up at business closings and sometimes liquidation auctions. They can support several tons and more and they can be adjusted for height.

I'm envious of the storage buildings some of you guys have. A bit out of my budget!

There was an empty space next to my pallet rack :eek: :

So I used some wood 2 by stuff and leftover purlins to add 5 shelves.

Tounge in cheek humor. It obviously works.
