The car on the lift

Car on lift

I received the lift on Tuesday, but didn't have time during the week to do the first test.

First thing I had to do is buy wood to elevate the car 3in above since its to low to have the lift go under. With the help of my sister it took less than 10mins to align everything.
One thing to watch out for: the Porsche is so wide that the jacking points are really at the maximum of the lift's width. Everything needs to be perfectly inline to have all four jacking points at their correct locations.
First attempt the car was too far back and it was really leaning backwards.

Si tu veux, je suis libre toute la fin de semaine prochaine donc on pourrait sortir le moteur si tu veux, j'amènerais mes outils et se serait plus facile. Je pourrais même avoir, fort probablement, accès à un compresseur à air, ce qui faciliterait l'utilisation des outils a air. Tu peux me contacter sur mon email à moi aussi: avez_vous_lheure@hotmail.com

J'attends de tes nouvelles

Merci

Laurent
