JCMOG: Do you have a photo of the ramp without the Morgan?
I am very tempted to buy one but want to see what the access under the car is like (I know it's not the purpose but would be handy all the same). Hi Richard. To use one of these lifters for a Roadster you have to drive the Morgan onto something to gain more height or the sump and the diff will catch the lifter. I built the two driving ramps on either side of the lifter to do this. Not sure if you would have to do this for a +4 or not. I bought this lifter from B.H repairs here is a link. http://www.bhrepairs.co.uk/ He imports them from China built to his own SPEC.

Hello,
Is this lift similar to the AA PS3600? Where do you lift the car? (where do you put the lift pads and is there anything I need to know before buying a lift?) I take it that the blocks at both sides of the lift are to raise the car for the lift to get under? TIA Hi Bob. Similar but better, it has a break lever release on the compressor stand to let the car down so you don't have to crawl under the car to lift the safety catch. It also has removable wheels to make it easier to move when needed. Go to http://www.bhrepairs.co.uk/ watch the video it will tell you all you need.

Without the outrigger bits its a perfect fit. Yes I built the ramps both sides because you need extra height for a Roadster because the sump and diff will catch as you drive over it. It is better to leave it in one place and drive over it because they are heavy to move all the time.

JCMog,
Thank you for the reply. I will look at the site and then ask SWMBO's permission. PS I see you are from Yorkshire - my wife was born in Doncaster.
