Really dig that set up!!

Thanks. I sure can!
Width: 14"
Height: 3.5"
Length broken down in sections, as each part is removable and can be reconfigured. I'll start at the front and work back.
Front piece 40" with welded stops at the edge
Center piece 83" with the hand holds on the sides. This number was reached after a lot of calculations factoring in the length of the lift, the reach of the lifting arms, the angles of the arms, and the average wheelbase of the majority of the cars I work on. Was worth the effort.
Rear piece 20"
Ramp piece 48" with 8" of that a flat platform to reduce chance of tire pushing ramp away and for extra length on long wheelbase vehicles. Handles cut into top side of ramp about 38" up from the back. Also the first 4" is completely flat to allow good purchase of the tire on the ramp before making the climb up the incline portion. I forget the angle on the ramp, but I've had impossibly low cars make it up with lots of clearance, even with large front splitters.
Not pictured: additional 20" section that can be added between the front and center piece (or anywhere really) to accommodate long wheelbase vehicles. Only needed it a few times, a couple of big trucks and a few short limos.

Thank you!
My cost was more than the lift itself....a good amount more. And the guy said if he had to do it again, he'd probably add at least another 1k to it. He put WAY more work into it than what he charged me. We also consulted together on refining the design too, a number of hours in his shop working together on sketches, math and geometry (so fun lol).
