944 and car lifts?

[Eldavo]

These look tempting for the price:

You'd want to secure them with axle stands as per the Boxster pic though.

I cant work out for the life of me how you'd actually lift a 944 with one though as the 4-point lift areas are too far apart???

My one is made by Cormach and is 132cm long on each sill area.

With 4 Rubber Blocks each one fits nice under the Jacking Points

Nothing fancy for me at all. I drive the front of the car up on low rise ramps, these give enough clearance to get my trolley jack right under the front of the car to lift from the subframe and hence lift the whole front end evenly. Under the back I go from directly behind the car and jack from under the gearbox to lift the whole of the rear evenly. Either method then leaves one clear to use any of the recommended points for placing jack stands. Proper big heavy duty low entry jack also makes a difference to the ease and pleasure of doing all this.

If we move again I will have a properly big garage, big enough for a 2 poster, for now 20x10 gives me plenty of room to work on the car and do other stuff.
