  • The harbor freight car lift is installed with the help of Mustie1 . Please check your safety lock if you get one !!! We had to adjust the cable to make the safety lock function as it should. Also you can use the 20% off coupon found online to help with tax & shipping.

    @monamarie2006 3 года назад +11

    Just a suggestion, you may want to turn that lift around and make a longer power cord or move the outlet. Running over the hydraulic line and safety lock cable is coing to cause you problems in the long run. Great video made even better by the appearance of Mustie1.

    I absolutely love my scissor lift. I have the BendPak, but I have had it for a decade now and it is the single best tool I have ever bought. I also work on old VW's, and they are a perfect fit on a scissor lift. I recommend them to anyone with height limits in their shop.
    A couple of tips. Have your sliding lift arms flipped so their outside ends are towards the middle of the lift before you roll the vehicle over the it. That way they can swing out from the center, and not be blocked by the tires on the vehicle. Also, I am pretty sure you should use ATF for the fluid. Not sure if tractor hydro will cause problems, but mine uses ATF.

    I bought a 9klb two post lift at storage lien auction and sold it to some one with a shop so he had help to move it.

    Just curious did you install the lift backwards just because if the power cable or because you work on rear engines vehicles primarily? I just got a scissor lift myself installed it in the same orientation for more under engine access of my front engines vehicles

    I put quick couplers on hydraulic lines, makes it easier to use and store.

    If you put engine/Transmission side opposite of the Rams , could a person remove Transmission? If a movable steel plate was in place , side to side of lifts flat surfaces! Thx

    You actually do a decent impression of that Bill Murray character. take that pristine VW off the front of that rusted hulk... and send it to me... I had the one off my first car, a VW van turned into a camper for years, but some time in the last couple of times I moved, it got gone somehow. I was 15 when I got that wagen, and it was rusty and looked like somebody took a huge can opener down one side, and of course it didn't run... but even tho I only had farm tools, didn't know metric nothing, I was able to get it running. Just took a carb rebuild and cleaning the tank and fuel lines out... pretty much, new plugs and stuff didn't hurt either. Of course, it didn't last long, It got a bad oil leak while I was (illegally) driving it around the back roads... and it blew up. Had I known then how easy it would have been to swap it out or rebuild it I might still have it today, but I was a farm kid with little money to work with...none in the winter when there was nothing to sell... so I let it go for what I paid for it. all of 25 dollars. guy wanted it to use for storing his grain and such... I took the stove and stuff out of it and sold that later, so I still made a profit on it. sort of, not including the time and bit of money to get it running. if you include that, well I probably lost a few bucks.
    By the way, do you know what the record for removing and re installing a VW engine is using only hand tools? Back in the day when they had such competitions it was a minute 30 seconds with 4 guys doing it. I'm kinda surprised it took that long, four bolts and some wires to to take lose... its out.

    It does matter. Black is your load, white is your common and green is you earth ground. Where you put each wire matters.
