That is why I went with the 9000 lb lift. I have 2 of these 2500 HD trucks and both of them are diesels. The black one in the pic weighs closer to 8000 with the full bumper replacement on the front. When I was driving it for a work truck it weighed close to 10,000 with all my tanks, tools, and boxes I had in it.

My Duramax is 7500 & change, wet with me in it at the last set of scales I weighed in.

Let me know how it does, I may be in the market. Looking at expanding my garage to accommodate my 2500 HD. It an '03 and has never seen the inside of a garage.

It never hesitated once lifting the truck. My 75 Vette is now on it and may be there a while. Trying to find speedometer parts and pulling my hair out!!!!!

It was not too bad putting it together. You will need plenty of help to stand the ends up after you get them together. I got lucky and had a guy show up that had bought some pipe from me and we used a backhoe to set the main runners in place.
