Question Which Portable lift to buy

I have a small shop with one entrance so getting a car in and out is a job.
I had a lift that was potable goes up 33 inches using air bags but the bottom is blocked by the slab so no work could be done except for brakes.

Can any one recommend a portable lift that will handle up to 6000 pounds and allows you access to under the chassie work? I am looking to replace the Herkules lift I have and am willing to sell it off cheap.

Thanks
Bob Geco

I have an eagle mid-rise lift. You have a certain amount of access in the middle of the lift. Mine has a Baldor motor, monark pump and Chinese steel platform and cylinders.

i got a 4 post lift

lift is great for any repairs. My 66 mustang convertible is parked on top and my 91 560sel stays at the bottom. you need to have at least 10 feet clearance for it to work. I got the directlift propark 7. It comes with wheels so you have the option of moving it ...
