Second upright is up! Only two anchors until I'm sure the top plate fits. This stuff takes awhile working by myself, but it is good excersise. Mental as much or more than physical.

Your going to LOVE it- Looks the Same as mine?
did you get the symmetrical or the asymmetrical ?

The mental part reminded me of installing my B.P. lift.
Originally wanted the controls on the left side and mounted the posts that way, but soon realized that the asymmetrical ones can only have the power and control on the right side.
Had to unbolt and remount the posts... OOps

just thought I would mention the left- right post thing ( don't recall it being in the manual)

Congrats again on the lift :thumbsup:

I didn't lye on my back at all yesterday when changing the oil in our Jetta TDI. Just extracted it with my Pella extractor, removed the oil filter from the top, and bemoved the fuel and air filters from the top. That's the way it should be. I could shoot Toyota every time I have to change the oil filter on it. It was obviously designed for lift removal only.

I even extract the oil on my tractor. Never go underneath on it except for grease gun time.
