Reply to "Car Lift Security Bolts"

The horror stories that I have seen have been not because of the lift coming apart when it is locked in and at rest; the failures that I know about are when the lift is in motion, and the alignment of the cable to pulley goes out and the cable rides the pulley and falls out of the groove -- creating those catastrophic photos that most of us have seen. Those that have these lifts really need to watch the pulleys; lube them on occasion, and actually lubricate the cables too. I lube mine with lithium grease in the spray can (the white stuff).

No matter what lift one has, all of the excitement happens when the lift is in motion and not sitting still, IMHO of course.
