Re: Lifting a car
when i had my first lift installed the installer said i could use it past it's rating but it would shorten the life of the lift. it's a 10k lift and he said he knew of people lifting up to 15k, the only difference between the two lifts was a larger hydraulic motor and heavier cables. the electrician said that if you exceed the capacity of the lift it will blow a breaker before the lift breaks.
i have never exceeded the weight limit just passing on the info i have heard.
