    Any Car guys here that like to turn their own wrench?

    You can rent my lift for $25 hr - I provide basic small hand tools and a press if needed.
    At this time My lift is only rated for 9K lbs so I wont be able to handle large trucks. Please msg me if you are interested. This is available by appointment only.

    I am located on W.Belfort and S. Gessner.

    Thanks!

    The lift is stationary - you gotta come to me.

    I believe you get unlimited Capri Suns if you sign up for the premium rate, which is $45/hour.

    Air?
    Place to dispose of coolant/oil properly (not the storm drain)?
    Picture of lift?
    Overnight storage if it all goes wrong?
    AC?

    This ad should be in the For Sale forum.

    i got water :)

    I provide only the lift, I will be collecting oil to be recycled and a service will start shortly but currently not available. The lift is a brand new 2 post lifted rated for 9K lbs. This is my personal warehouse so there is some storage for over night storage. The warehouse is not A/C'd. Pm me and i can provide photos.

    Always down for someone coming by and talking and hanging out :)

    Man, if you were in Austin I might consider :), I have everything but a lift.. I mean I have an awesome jack, but nothing replaces an actual lift. On my next house I'm going to have one installed, currently my garage has 8 ft ceilings so a lift wouldn't work.

    Right now working on headgasket on an Altima, had to take long break in between but should get wrapped up next week... One thing I wish I invested in years ago would be airtools, it makes everything better.

    Sure you might live in the River Oaks, but I bet you don't have a lift.

    Can you that bow tie thing off when you pick me up. It's kinda embarrassing.

    it is a popular thing but they typically offer more than JUST a lift for 25 an hour. air compressor, seats and creepers, high cfm air compressor, wifi etc.


    For 90 bucks a month txrxlabs.org is great for pretending to work for a living. Plus they have the nice toys and knowledgeable people.
