EZCarLift

Not sure were to post this but here goes - admins please remove/relocate if this is in the wrong place.

 

While search on hybridz.org site for how people were lifting there cars I found a link to www.ezcarlift.com

 

I thought the concept looked great but thought it was a bit pricey so started to google around when I found this groupbuy going so thought I would post here in case someone on here might be interested.

 

see http://www.gotogroupbuy.com/LandingPages/ezcarlift/ezcarlift.aspx

 

I am not connected with this at all and not on the groupbuy list but I am thinking about it. The last GB they run on this product sold for $700 less than the RRP

 

I found this post from a user on the last GB and thought this had some good points about the product.

RE: EZCARLIFT

Just thought I'd throw in my $0.02 worth, as I bought the lift on the last group buy. Boytcho is not kidding, call him with questions or clarifications. He really answers the phone.

 

The EZCarlift is not for everyone. There are definitely cheaper lifts out there, and they will lift higher and faster. If that's all you're looking for, to rotate tires and change oil, then this is not the one for you. Seriously.

 

But, if you have limited ceiling height, limited floor space, want real portability to use a lift anywhere (powerwash the underside of your truck outside? no problem!,) share the cost with a close relative, want real open access underneath (not having to work AROUND the bracing on a standard low rise lift), want to park the car THERE and lift it THERE, not where the lift is bolted to the floor, don't want to limit your garage to a lift bay, because heaven forbid you actually use your garage for something besides lifting a car, and like the easy ability to micro-raise/lower and stop the lift at any height (and when you're dropping or installing a tranny, this is worth it's weight in gold)....if these things are important to you, then there is no other choice!! I've used my lift on 4 different vehicles, with 2 different cross widths, about a 1/2 dozen times in the last few months. Whenever I use it, I am glad with how easy it is to set up, use, and put away. Friends that have come over are really impressed. And I've lent it to one friend who swears he has to get one (if his wife will let him). That's another thing. If the wife shares the garage, and she's anything like mine, a 2 post or 4 post lift is out of the question. "What if we move?", " I don't want to drive around that thing", yada yada yada. If I have to explain it, then you're not married. This one is easy. Do a brake job or 2, change some struts, change tranny/diff fluid/exhaust whatever, where you just don't want to hassle with jacks, and stands and ramps..and homo, this pays for itself. And guess what? If you find it's not for you after all, or you really only need a lift for that one huge job, then you'll never work on a car again, (I swear) you can SELL it EASILY on ebay for 3/4's what you paid in a heartbeat, because you can SHIP the damn thing anywhere. Try that with a 4 post lift. For me, it really was a no brainer. Glad to answer any questions on it that you may have.

These available anywhere in Australia? The postage would kill it for me, could get a 2 post hoist for that kinda coin, I'd just have to limit how far up I sent the car @_@

[sco_aus]

Thats perfect for me, except the price...

me too and then add shipping from the US to NZ/AU more $$ I think I will save for a 2 or 4 post hoist

 

An Ezcarlift would be good to have as you could use at the track, a mates place - anywhere.

Yeh I guess that's the point, though a normal hoist would do a better job, it can't go to the track or live in my in laws garage or my garage etc etc. But yeah, it's pretty exy

And that is why it is priced like it is - there is nothing else like it period so I guess if you want a jack that can go from 4" to 26", ie light and portable then this is it - nothing else around like it so I guess this is why they are asking what they do.

 

Hope the guys on the group buy get down to the full 25% discount rate.
