TurboNova Posted April 10, 2012 Report Share Posted April 10, 2012 Looks good just had Brent do mine for my lift and love it. Those liftmaster jack motors are awesome Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wnaplay1647545503 Posted April 11, 2012 Report Share Posted April 11, 2012 Dan I thought you were wanting a rollup. Whats an upgrade like this run? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TurboNova Posted April 11, 2012 Report Share Posted April 11, 2012 Roll up would of been nice too but they dnt look that great when down from outside and would not match the other door, price depends on how he needs to add to lift to ceiling Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GRN96WS6 Posted April 11, 2012 Report Share Posted April 11, 2012 So these mount on the side and not above? How much installed if I may ask? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jackson1647545504 Posted April 11, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 11, 2012 $274 for the unit on Amazon and no more difficult than a normal installation http://www.amazon.com/LiftMaster-3800-Residential-Jackshaft-Garage/dp/B000MT7WV4/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1334152175&sr=8-1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TurboNova Posted April 11, 2012 Report Share Posted April 11, 2012 its all in the tracking to be honest. The motor is needed due to raising the tracks to the ceiling. I would say there are alot of variables but between 700-1100 to have your door converted with all needed parts and labor. Jackson how high are your ceilings. I have 11ft and can stand flat foot under my 4post with any car on the lift. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
POS VETT Posted April 11, 2012 Report Share Posted April 11, 2012 Brent installed the jackshaft drive and raised the tracks for clearance. He got the door to clear the ceiling at less than 1/2". I would have had the jackshaft raised as close as possible to the ceiling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The guy who did the job met the clearance requirement so I'm pleased Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
