Whats a good priced lift that I can trust won't come crashing down on me? I'm posting this because I have noticed a large difference in price from some companies to the next. There has to be something I'm missing? How difficult is it to install yourself?

I have a Bend Pak HD-9 and feel very safe under it. With a 9000 pound rating, this is about 3 times what you need to lift the vette.
You can assemble yourself, just have around 2 - 3 strong backs to help you. Lifting the ramps is the hardest part unless you have a hoist or rolling jacks. :cheers:

Just look for reputable companies and you should be in good hands.
