I have no idea how much a lift is, I assume they are expensive, and I don't really have a place to put one
They're really not expensive. They even have some that you sorta fold up and put away. They require a permanent spot to set them up (the ones I've seen) but then they disconnect and fold up in the corner.
But, yeah, they definitely require somewhere to put it. You could do a concrete pad and then put 'em in a shed when they're not in use, but that's not ideal.
I don't think that we are going to have a lift anytime at this location. There are a whole lot of things that can be repaired on a vehicle without a lift though. I mean all the suspension can be worked on just putting a corner up on jack stands.
You can also get ramps to get some room under the car. There's a really neat creeper that is made of cloth/fabric. It works on the ground.
Lemme find it...
Check vids of it, if you're curious. They're actually pretty awesome. They appear to work well.
