What people tend to forget is in order for you to have a two post lift you need a minimum concrete slab depth of 6 inches and massive holes drilled in your floor to bolt it down for 90 percent of guys needing the lift for storage 4 post lifts are way more all around safe and usable. Bendpaks compressor system tho is super ancient hydraulic with manual lock positions is the only way. Two post lifts are great for doing brakes and control arms thats about it. Otherwise four post lifts are way easier to move do transmission exhaust oil changes driveshafts inspecting stuff. they do not required to be bolted down and you can store 2 cars safely. Drip trays and I have seen numerous guys install upward lights on the rails do you have light underneath to see. 2 posts are dangerous if you don't balance it properly.
Love the e36, I've had my 99' for 17 years. Love the bendpak lift too, I'm installing one next month. you shouldn't put your hand between the ramp and the tire and the jack pad and the car ... you know why I'll leave it at that. Thanks for the video. The jack is very loud, gave me pause, I have an esco pneumatic jack, I think I'll just use that.
Great info here! Now, for my complaint: Consider using a head mount camera so we can see what you're seeing. The camera was often too high to see the items you were talking about.
WARNING!! Do not use hockey puck type spacers, I used this method and almost dropped a truck off my lift!! The reason for the unsafe condition is these type spacers "hockey puck " spacer blocks are not anchored "fixed" to the jack. Under the right conditions they can come flying out without notice! You NEVER want a spacer not fixed between you jack and the car.
Nice video Chuck ....It's a sweet set up. I wish I could afford this setup as BendPak makes great stuff (Safe stuff ) . A buddy of mine had this setup and I have had the pleasure of using it many times until his divorce . You seem like a nice guy and money is still an obstacle for you when it comes to making these purchases . So a couple issues that I've seen that will effect the safety and longevity of your lift and Jack ....You have the RBJ4500 installed facing the wrong direction for your setup. The foot pedal and hydraulics should be facing the rear of your garage and the rear cross tube , the air hose should be draped across the back horizontal cross tube/bar (It avoids ever being driven on and unneeded stress on the lines and connections ) turning it around is no easy task . The biggest issue is the placement of the car ( and the car it's self ) You need to make sure every time you put a car on that lift it is centered front to back and when Jacking the car up while on the 4 post lift....Your lift is roughly 13.5 feet long, you can't use that scissor jack the RBJ4500 or any jack on that 4 post lift further than 4.5 feet from any of your support poles and that number is for cars with wheelbases of 115' inches, with your STi and Forester that number is much shorter... roughly 3.5 feet from any support pole and the Porsche 944 it's roughly 2.5 feet .....The weakness in 4 pole systems is the middle of your runners by design and how the lift capacity of the lift is effected by the shorter wheelbases of vehicles ... you bend one of those runners and the lift is toast and dangerous. The Porsche is like the smallest car I would work on on that lift at a wheel base of like 93 inches. At a wheel base of 93 inches your 9000 LB lift turns into roughly a 4800 lb lift (2400 lbs per axle ) now when you use the scissor jack on the lift you could lift 2400 LBS per axle of the Porsche if it weighed 4800 LBS (It Doesn't) but only if the wheels were at the support posts but they are not because the Porsche wheelbase is so much shorter and it needs to be centered. ....Bottom Line, The maximum amount of weight that can be lifted by that RBJ4500 at 2.5 ft away from center of your 4 post lift (4 to 5 ft of runners (Middle)are unusable area for your cars ) would equal 25% of the RBJ4500 lift capacity of 4500LBs would be 1250 LBs , 3.5 ft from center 2250 Lbs , 4.5 ft from center 3375 Lbs and 5.5 ft the full 4500 Lbs ....Do yourself a favor and use some yellow tape on the runners and mark off the center 4ft as totally unusable and always lift as close to the poles as possible . You can easily damage that lift using the RBJ4500 too close to center . You can work worry free with an adjustable jack post set dead center of the runners on each side of the lift and use the RBJ4500 worry free at any area of the runners for like $100 for the pair .
The jack is a big plus but even without the jack I see you do your own oil change. Can work on exhaust, mufflers, undercarriage, engine and transmission. Cleaning and waxing a breeze, and able to drive another car under it "Priceless" Thumbs up 1.6k
Thanks for the review, great video! As far as rotating tires, I guess this wouldn't be of any use as you can't lift both front and rear tires at the same time.
Did you find out that with the new bridge jack installed that your ramps can’t go down all the way to the floor because the bottom of the bridge jack is lower than the bottom of the rails?
Be careful where you put that bridge jack. They are meant to be used at the *ends* of the lift. By using near the center like that, it creates considerable stress on the platforms. The lift is rated for less than 25% capacity when you have a short wheelbase - and that's when the weight of the car is supported at two points. Loading the center of the lift at one point is dangerous. Of course that's a lighter car on a 9K lift, but still... be safe.
I love this rolling jack, but it does NOT lift all vehicles based on their lift points. A couple of my cars are too wide despite my EW 4-post from Danmar. Not happy about that, but they do offer a kit that lifts closer to the center, but on top of the $1600, there is an additional $220 for a center jack conversion kit
Honestly all I could focus on was wondering why in the world someone would build a garage with what looks like a 10 foot high ceiling but then only put in like 6 foot high door? I’m not saying you built the garage but who ever did has some issues. I’ve never seen that silliness before haha
Use 2 and place them under the lower control arms/ball joints. Then you only have to lift the car an inch or two instead of 4-6 inches when the struts fully extend.
Chuck, why not install a ductless ac w/heat pump in your garage? Seeing you suffer in the VA heat is painful, and with the heat during the winters, knowing you are toasty, everyone will be happy!
next addition to workshop - ceiling /wall/ floor fans. By the time I bought the rolling jack and air compressor I think I'd just buy another couple of jack trays, bolt them all together and then use a floor jack on them. Possibility?
What are the safety precautions taken to prevent injury due to sudden failure of the (i) rolling jack lift or (ii) the main platform lift itself on which the car is lifted?
After a few years of use, would you still recommend the RJ45 jacks, or have you had issues after the making of this video?I’m considering purchasing them
@@1320str8liner so neither, they redesigned it slightly and switched to 2 versions now. I'd go low pro if you can. I don't think you lose anything in height but every inch counts if you like sports cars 😂
Is it just me or did the arms for the ranger jack look sketch AF with them bending that much from a BMW M3. I work at a shop that has two post Bendpaks and that bend in the arms concerns me, I would hate to see what the bend would be with a SUV.
I got 2 7k capacity jacks. They came with lip rollers instead of channel rollers. Seems that the cross bar that gets attached on each side end of the jack acts as a leaf spring? Because it doesn't have the springs on each roller. My issue is the jack doesn't compress back up after first time use so now it's hard to slide back and forth as its still sitting down on the lip. Any ideas?
Having buyer’s remorse on my four post. Would have gladly spent twice as much to just pop the car up, remove wheels for race brake change and brake bleed, by far my most frequent use of the lift. Still have room to work under for header install, etc. stupid me for cheaping out!
I contemplated a 4 post but the main thing I do is tire rotation on my 8 vehicles so I got a 2 post. I do light mechanical work like oil change, muffler, brakes etc but honestly I just wanted to be able to do a quick simple tire rotation without all the darn jacks and jack stands.
I just bleed from underneath with the wheels still on 👍 depends one the car though if it's accessible. Other wise do the back half then the front half.
I say the other best solution is to get the QuickJack and it works wonders. I can also take the Quickjack with me to the track to service my race car too.
Hi a great set up there ! Q what's the outside width of the posts ,? And price please .I looked round for a narrow 4 post lift and dident see your vid till guess. , I've just tacken delivery of a 2 and a half ton scissor lift ,there good but you don't have the complete height to work fully underneath it's still good I can use it as a bike lift as well but hey ho ,.keep up the good vids .Ant from Wales UK .

I was "trolling" RUclips for answers as to how to acquire a lift in my garage, and I stumbled upon several of your videos on the ends and outs of the true ownership costs attaining said lift. I liked the video so much that I subscribed to your channel; really good stuff by the way... I had a small question about who reconfigured your garage door, and what did cost. I was so impressed by the work they did! I was hoping, if at all possible, you could list their name and number so I could get them to do mine... If not, I'll keep on searching for someone. Thx!
Or if you are a cheapskate like me, you can get a small two ton capacity HF hydraulic jack , put it in the jack tray and you are set. For about 25 bucks. I tried the scissor jack but it is way hard to operate under the car
Thanks for your video. Sadly I wish I researched the maximum width of the rbj4500. 57 inches maximum reach is ridiculous. It doesn’t the jacking points of my e39 540. Ugh.
@@flyseeconnect258 does it work as intended and how much did it cost to have the thicker version. I want one of these so bad. The only thing stoping me is the max arm reach
Curtis Dickson nice cars. Yes. It works as intended but make sure you get the maximum thickness because the longer bar may bend given the added length. The original had a lot of play so their is room. If you want more info, email me elmanzah@gmail.com
Video is a few years old so prices have changed a bit. But these days I think the lift is up to $3800ish and the scissor jack is $1500. Not cheap but worth it.
Guys, just asking for an advice. I really want to buy WRX STi, but I've always driven only SUV's (LC200, Escalade sc, RAM2500, H2 sc etc.). Is it a painful experience to go to the sedan from the SUV? Ofc I'm not going to buy it for a swap of lc200, but as a third car.
NoNoNoNo Never shouldn't be too bad. Notable drop in space and clearance, but much better handling, acceleration and braking in return. Should be better to park as well.
We have a few different 4 post lifts at my shop outside and nothing really works especially if you are in the PNW. We have tried bed liner, diamond plate, grit finish and even adding steel traction grates. Nothing works well if your lift or tires are wet.
$1100 for the rolling jack??? Jesus, I always say how overpriced Bendpak stuff is but that's ridiculous. There's other lifts out there that are just as good as the Bendpak name at a much more reasonable price point.
glad i came across this video. bendpak's pricing has always concerned me. but after seeing this video and seeing how their stuff works and getting a real good view of that 4-post, i'm DEFINITELY not getting a bendpak. overpriced crap.
Dustin Walden but then you are having to bend over, crawl around on the ground. I would much prefer to complete any wheel work or brake service while being able to stand up. The method in this video is not only easier but safer too. Just my opinion.
With the front raised via the lifting points, where do you put the jack stands? I rotate my tires front to back and am trying to determine if I can do it with one bridge jack. Thanks!
I promise the coilover review is next! I'm filming it tomorrow and will try to get it up on Sunday! I need some daylight to film and I've been busy getting kids to bed etc. in the evenings. Sorry for the delay!

See about getting a 90 degree fitting for your airline, to relieve some of that pull on the fitting from gravity.
Excellent idea sir!
That's 2 now... I told you about the LED lights from Sam's way back when... I think I need to go for the hat trick.
Man you are on a roll!
Better than a 90° fitting get the BendPak air line kit specifically created for plumbing this RBJ...
Oddest looking ethernet jack I ever seen :) very nice addition to the garage/shop
haha did youtube suggest the wrong thing again?
oh no.. I was just referring to the model rj45
Hockey pucks great idea, $15,000 air compressor got a good laugh out of that one. Good video

Or just use 2 jack stands 😎
Great addition! Wonder if there was any discount to be had if you ordered the scissor lift with the 4 post all at the same time.
I think the "discount" is that it ships for free with the lift!
How many CFM does your compressor put out? The air output only affects the rise speed, not the ability to lift the weight?
Great add. Looking forward to getting my lift in this summer. Thanks!

They both have lock outs
Good vid. Think I will get the jack when I get my lift. Thanks for your vid
Just what I need for my SM, thanks for the post!
Sweet addition to the garage.
Dude I'm loving it!
Is front really heavier? Doesn't it have 50-50 weight distribution?
That is a sweet setup.
So adding this part to the bendpak four post doesn't allow you to install LED rail lighting onto the rail cause of the unit.
Please I want to know how to set up the electrical side before lifting the car it self. New settings up
You know you can get jack stands for the lift rails and harbor freight has tall floor jacks to help ya out
Will RJ 45 fit any other 4 post lift?
Possibly, it extends to fit different center widths. But the lift needs the center rail system like Bendpaks have.
After a few years of use, would you still recommend the RJ45 jacks, or have you had issues after the making of this video?I’m considering purchasing them

NoNoNoNo Never shouldn't be too bad. Notable drop in space and clearance, but much better handling, acceleration and braking in return. Should be better to park as well.
Surprised there isn’t slip resistant paint

It's more about the CFM than the gallons when it comes to performance.

Why don't you get two rolling lifts instead of depending on one to lift the car
Haha because they are like $1500 a piece. raise the front and use jack stands then raise the back.
With the front raised via the lifting points, where do you put the jack stands? I rotate my tires front to back and am trying to determine if I can do it with one bridge jack. Thanks!
