Default Lift Tables

I'm thinking about getting a lift that I can use for my RK and the grand kids four wheelers. Any suggestions of what works or what would you do different if you did it over. Don't have a lot of space so storage is an issue. I have air so that seems like a better way to raise the table than a foot pump. Thanks in advance.

1.) a clamp or chock for the front wheel

2.) a drop down rear section for pulling the rear wheel ( the wheel drops straight down leaving the chassis at a good working height) some tables do not have this feature

like this:

Got my table here

love it, but it does take up a lot of space in my garage.
It's nice to be able to work on the bike while in my reclining office chair! :-)

well I have joined the ranks of others and bought the harbor freight red table lift for $300 and love it

handles the SG no problem, and everything is easy


I did throw out the clamp thing and bought the wheel chock from HF also and she drives right up and in no problems, step off and she stays right there

then I grab my tie down and lock her in place

best thing around for $300 honestly (plus about $35 for the chock)
