I kinda prefer a 2 post lift with top support piece.

Just makes me feel better.

Not sure about clearance for a camper van though. we only put cars on it.

We are fortunate enough to have a 4 post lift also, so any big SUVs or vans
go on that.

From my brief research, the Rotary brand is supposed to be pretty good for
the money.

I think they are still built in the US.

Things to watch for on quality lifts are rollers instead of rub blocks and
chains instead of cables- according to a lift salesman I spoke with.

Having said that, we went with the cheaper rub block/ cable models made by
Bend Pak and imported.

We only have about 6 months of use with them and no problems yet.

Time will tell.

I just rented a small shop, in order to feed my addiction. Currently I
have four Vanagon projects in progress, so this should help! I'm
looking for 'Lift' advice. What is recommended, what to watch out for,
features, good brand/bad brand, etc.
Thanks,
Miguel
