Nick!

I'd give my left leg to get a lift in my garage, or any covered space that I had unfettered 24 hr access to. Dream on, dream on...
Be careful what you wish for. It has its downside because one will then become not enough...

More space equals more stuff ........ Nothing we can do about it.

The white letters are an improvement....... Car looks great...! Did you not get the Chrysler dog dish caps.....?
 
That's the only RWL on the car. Came like that. I'm flipping the tire around as soon as I can.
Just installed the Baby Moons a couple days ago.
I have three Newports and one American Motors wheel cover For Sale....
 
At his age he's supposed to meet all the women. Right and wrong......

The local Ford dealer had one for sale that needed a little work. $500 and come get it.

But... you gotta be careful. This one fell off the lift just as my son walked by. He had his back to it and it scared the crap out of him.....

 
I don't really know what exactly happened... if the tech screwed up or the lift broke. My son said it was a bit of both.

The Tommy Lift on the back didn't help the balance.

Problems with lifts happen... A friend had a brand new Chevy truck put into the ceiling of a Buick dealership shop. I was at a friend's shop when one of the pads wasn't quite in position right and a Firebird tipped and started to fall. My friend grabbed a corner of the car and pushed up while I let the car down.

Obviously didn't do the bounce test, get it a foot or so off the wheels and push on the bumpers a few times.

But the lift probably didn't help.

It's one or the other.
The Tech screwed up.
I check for weight distribution and balance. Then I check, double check, and triple check the pads. I learned that at 16.
Look at the rear swing arms. They weren't even beyond the the back of the cab!!
The tech didn't want to spend the extra few minutes to install the truck stands.
If he isn't fired, then the Service Manager should be.

I try and keep trucks on my 4 post 15,000lb drive on hoist if I can, but sometimes I have to put them on my two-post 9,000lb hoist, I try and use the Asymmetrical 2 poster if I am putting a truck on the 2 post. I've written the ALI test 5 times with a perfect score and have a certification in vehicle hoisting, I've never personally had an issue, I have saved someone elses *** when a BMW got to rocking on the hoist and decided to come down.
