Problem? I have a 4 post lift which I perched because I couldn't use the pit any longer. The low ceiling height ( 9 ft 4 in) restricted how high I could raise the car and I bought an adjustable height creeper that required getting off to raise or lower and getting back on. I just purchased an Aero Creeper that uses an 18-20 volt battery to ,power it up/down without getting off. You sit on it , then lower to get under the the lift and raise as needed to work under the car. I thought some on here might be interested in something like this.
That's an interesting chair. I mean creeper. Wondered what was available for those with low lift hoists.
Wow, that looks pretty spiffy. I'll probably stick with that old office chair I picked up at a going out of business sale. Phil
I remember that there was an announcement of a similar product about 6 or 8 years ago. I was interested, but it didn't go anywhere and all references disappeared soon thereafter. It looks like a real product this time. and being 6 or 8 years older, I'm even more interested this time. What they need is a little competition to get the price to a reasonable level. I don't see $2300 worth of extra cost between the $529 basic unit and the $2900 motorized version. It's just a $60 drill and some linkage.
I want one! How fast does it raise and lower? I can picture Tim Taylor altering it for “More Power “ so his would be the fastest. Then being flung over Wilson’s fence…
I have a regular creeper and never use it, so I’ll keep sliding underneath the car on a piece of cardboard pulling diffs, transmissions….the traditional way.
