It would lift, close to 5 ft. I liked it a lot! You would place it under the A arms or a cross member. You lifted the car, until the rear bumper, hit the ground (and then some). You place jack stands at the rear of the frame and then lowered it down on to the front stands. All 4 up in one lift.
Yep, They were called a 'Bay Lift'. Used them often years ago and wish they were still making them.
