If any of my viper brothers in the area need to borrow a lift just ask...

Sweet! Do I hear oil changes at your place
Im jealous. You're gonna love it no doubt!
Is that a Direct Lift Pro Park 8S with the Gold ANSI/ALI ALCTV - 2006 Certificate. Sweet. Did you install it yourself? Nice job on the Garage Door Clearance! I'm jealous too!
Nice. Did you paint the floor?
Those DirectLifts are fairly decent for the price. I've had mine since April and it is worth every penny.
Here is a tip on the door/ceiling height. You can see in the picture that he has the garage door raised up to the ceiling, not sure if the opener is on the ceiling or wall mounted. In my situation I could have gained perhaps another foot by raising the door tracks and getting a wall mounted opener. A fair amount of expense for that 12"
However, you probably don't really need to raise the door all the way open. In my case I only need 4.5' at most to get either car into the garage . The opener has a stop setting on it for the open position. I was able to adjust it to stop when it is open about 4.5'. That leaves room at the ceiling for the roof of the upper car to tuck in between the door and the opener motor.
Hope that explains it. I gain a few more inches and that allow it to all work out.
