Hard to figure out best way. Don't follow Pelican. I'll post pics and a tutorial tomorrow. Definatly learned a few tricks!!
You'll need some tools.......like a 12 ton press and a bearing puller set.

I bought my own lift for the garage for 2K and now I can easily do almost everything on the list for a few hundred bucks. Everything he did was double priced.

I just went through this, the 2 most popular choices are BendPak and Atlas. To take it to the next level you will want to recess the lift into the floor (which I just finished doing).

The $50 dollars for towels was funny but how can they justify an hour to change a battery???
I just posted part one of a tutorial that fills the gaps Pelican left out. It's in performance and tech.
