Looking to buy a hoist

Anybody know were I can get a deal. I ALmost finished building my garage and need a hoist to complete the package.. If anyone knows of someone getting rid of one I would like a full drive on with 4 posts. I have made a killer garage and the hoist will make it complete. I will acutally post some pics when im done.

Full detached garage that can hold up to 12 cars give or take. I heat it with a propane BBQ tank with screw on heater for now. Upstairs has a loft with bunk beds and a shower (for engine swap weekends and such with friends), TV/ game room with my old living room couches . Of coarse my beer fridge and my 1985 JVC home stereo system I have had for years for sound across the garage. Every automotive manual and wireing diagram that ive been collecting for years from garage sales and such. Majority of tools I now have but NEED hoist to make life easyier.


cheers.

I take back the talking, can i be your pal?

Hmm hoist, I have seen tons of websites. I can ask some of the mk4 supra guys where they got theres if you are looking to buy a new one. But I did see a website recently listing them for $4000, full drive on. Let me look around...

Check out places like www.buysell.com or the TriAd paper. You can usually find them for cheap there.

I deliver to a place on Argentia that sells them. I'll get back to you on Friday. Used to be called Rotary Lift. I don't remember the new name.

^ There's a place on Millcreek that used to be called "Wheeltronic", but is now Snap-On. I don't know if that's the place you are thinking of.

No, I know that place too. It's on Argentia, across from the Harley/Buell dealer. I'll get the name. It used to be Rotary Lift.
