They had a version that would give almost 6’ underneath a few years ago. I really considered that unit. The being able to put it to the side was what really interested me. If you don’t have the space for a full setup there a great choice or you won’t be using it constantly. At 10’4 you have enough height to stack cars with a four post if the need and space is available. My ceiling height is 12’4, and ultimately the stacking cars is what made the decision for me.
I’m 5’7” and it sounds like the one that was almost 6’ underneath would be nice to have. I do like 4 post lifts, but figure a 2 post will be more practical for me. One of each would make me very happy.

I was wondering if someone with a 2 post lift could take some good measurements for me (with their garage closed) from the garage door to the front of the posts and from the rear of the posts to the nearest object (tool chest etc.) that is behind it? Thanks

I found a lift at A local business called Champion Auto Lift in Sarasota, FL that I have scheduled to be delivered the week after next. It’s the TP10F-HD 2 post. I pulled the Bullitt into the garage last night to try and get an idea of where I will have to mount the towers. As you can see in the pics, the car is further forward than I would like for it to be, but this is probably what it’ll have to be though. The tape measure in the pic is laying right on top of a control joint that the masonry guys cut into the floor. Instructions on the lift say to stay 6 inches away from any cracks, expansion or control joints. In a perfect scenario, I would have the lift centered on the control joint. I’ll see what the expert opinion is of the Champion employees when they deliver it.
