I have the bridge jack and a sliding jack tray for my four post lift.
That's how I did wheels-off work before I added a 2-post lift. I found that
all that crap was always in the way of whatever it was we wanted to work
on. Don't get me wrong. It's 100x better than laying on the concrete, but
it's far from ideal.
