Hello Everyone,

There has been talk about shop pits.

I was wondering:

1) When was the first time you recall ever using a pit to maintain or work on a vehicle?

2) Why do you like them?


I will go first.

For ME #1 - Was when I was stationed in the US Army at Fort Polk, LA. I was a mechanic in the US Army and I worked in the maintenance pool. And #2 - I like them because they are quicker to use than a lift, No worries of a vehicle falling to the ground, and easier on the body too.


How about you?

Marie and I are blessed to have had a 2nd chance to buy our farm.
Still hoping and more importantly praying to be able to build a garage.
Our 1970 Ultravan #520 has an Olds Toronado 455 in back.
