Wife bought me a new present to help keep my bonneville running well :wink:

I'm only at 65k miles, and haven't had a garage until this past year. Had it for the last 8ish years so it's seen a few harsh winters, but boy do oil coatings help a lot with rust in NY.

This was the first lift on the Maxjax

Bonus underside pic from when I replaced the control arms, tie rod ends, and sway links a week before the lift was installed

That is a great gift.
My brother in law has 2 lifts.
One you drive on and also 2 post type.
He has a pole barn which has plenty of head room.
I would love one but do not have the head room so I go out by him to work on things,
Here in Wisconsin I am a big fan of Fluid Film.
It really makes a difference.
It must be great to live in a climate where there is no snow which means NO SALT!!!!!
Cars will last forever if they never see salt.
My cars are always in the garage which really helps.
The good thing now is that I am retired and don't go out when the roads are full of salt or slush.

Nice on the lift.

Your those oil coatings are definitely helping your undercarriage.
