Anyone using a Wildfire Four Post Lift for their Evora

Looking to buy a four post lift for a new home and Advantage is out at least four months on deliveries and their prices have increased substantially since I bought my last one.

Wildfire seems to have a similar build quality (no C channels) with some slightly better dimensions for my needs.

Has anyone used this brand?

Not used them, but "some" C channel stuff is Okay... but more so if you are using for sub 4,000 stuff. My Triumph is C channel and has the lock blocks welded on. I'm not as big of fan of the other "hanging strap" stuff out there.
I will say one thing I like versus my Advantage style lifts the C channel stuff has is you can use the sides versus having nothing you can leave on the 4 posts. I have magnetic lights and power strips (and stickers-lol) on all 4 corners.

You know wierd thing on that. Mine felt sketchy for a while, but when went to move it a bit, it looked bowlegged when I sat it down. I took a small sledge to "seat it flat" at each corner and since then has been far more stable.

I use DMS Equipments lift in my garage to store my Evora, been absolutely bulletproof for the last 4 years without any issues. I paid $4700 installed and you pay NOTHING until they finish installing it. Even with the whole tariffs thing going on, they're still offering them at $4700 installed.... with warranty.

Now to answer your question about wildfire lift, I have a friend who has purchased it to store his GT3RS. He doesn't seem to have any issues with it either in the 2 years of owning it. So far so good, it was more expensive than mine, and he had to put it together himself.

Agree and loved my XLT Advantage Lift but the high lifts all pushed other dimensions out of my fit in the new house.

I just ordered the Wildfire Exotic which is the same height and length as the standard (has 6' clearance to walk around while I'm 6'2") but has 23" wide ramps and a wider landing area overall if I do something stupid like buy a Corvette ZR1 in the future. :ROFLMAO:

I've had an Atlas for a long time, with no problems. A plan for moving the parts, which are delivered by freight and dropped at the curb, and who's going to set it up, are important too.
