My new toy for the barn arrived via semi this morning...a two-post lift from Eagle Lifts!!! Soon, no more lying on my back on a creeper!

9000# capacity 220v lift motor

Got the uprights installed this afternoon...will work on the overhead and cabling tomorrow. (Don't tell OSHA about me!)

That looks like good fun -- boy do I wish I had room for a lift!
 
Good deal Rick! Did you get the Asymmetric or the Floorplate? Nice lift at a great price. PJ

Asymmetric....no floor plate needed for cabling as I have a 16' ceiling in the barn.

The price was right...I took advantage of their "Corvettes at Carlisle" sale and got it for $1699 delivered to my door.

Here's a shot of the barn....complete with a full moon.

Nice barn Rick! I see that the Jubilee has it's own private spot.

Yep. She stays inside most of the time.

Got the PTO shaft changed out last week. Only took me about 5 minutes. Wish all jobs were that easy!

That's nice to know, but I hope I never have that problem. Didn't you say the later models have a larger shaft? If that's so, then I should be ok as mine is a 55/600. I do a little mowing with mine, but that's all. It keeps the cobwebs out and it stays on the grass.
