I'm fortunate to have a two post lift in the workshop. I have been exploring the option of making something like these to allow the car to be support from the wheels as opposed to the sills:
My initial thoughts are to use a weighty box section perhaps 100x50mmx8mm for the back section, then some angle (100x100x8) for the wheel supports with plate to form a wedge from the angle. I would guess that the top and bottom plates that the pin goes through are around 12mm thick?
Does anyone have any thoughts regarding improvements or how best to approach it?
