I have one and love it. I bought the 9000 pound one a few years ago. Stable and solid as a rock. I also have the 4500 pound rolling jack. It’s worth the investment. I just used it to install my Dana 60.

I bought their 7000 lb. rated four post lift from a local guy who had bought 20+units from them at the SEMA show to get a deal on them. Mine had sat outside in the snow and rain for two years before I bought it, it started leaking fluid out of the down lever button O ring On the second or third time I used it, I still need to fix that. Beside it leaking I like it

mohawk is still made in amsterdam new york Doesn't appear as though they offer a 4 post automotive lift though, BUMMER I wouldn't think twice about buying a European made lift other than they are likely $$$$$ But Quality costs. Parts could also become an issue with the exception of Rotary

I like mine although I wish I'd bought the 9K vs the 7K, the extra width would be nice with my '14 Ram - I have only about 1/2" clearance on each side with that one, not enough post to post width. Having said that, I bought mine about 17 years ago so there's no guarantee there's anything but the name still the same nowadays. I have done all kinds of work on mine with no issues although I did bolt it down for extra stability.
