It's a test in aerodynamics like we've never seen before. [caption id="attachment_2528"... Read More

Last week we were invited out to take some pictures of an upcoming Garage Mahal episode that featured some great Ranger garage equipment. The last time we had a chance to do something with Garage Mahal, we had to travel all the way to Detroit. So when we heard that the DIY Network show was going to be filming in Moorpark, CA (practically our backyard compared to Michigan), we grabbed a camera and husseled over. Read More

Jalopnik featured our good friends at Drop Top Customs today in an article about the new Chevrolet Camaro’s conspicuous lack of a T-Top option. As the article states, “They’re ridiculous and sorta vulgar and they leak and rattle, but they’re so damn cool.” We couldn’t agree more. Read More

If you've been following along on Twitter, Facebook and of course the blog, then you're already eagerly anticipating this Friday's episode of Garage Mahal with Car and Driver Magazine. Their garage was in serious need of renovation, so DIY Network called in only the best equipment from BendPak / Ranger to help turn it into a bona fide testing facility with all the works. At the heart of this newly anointed workshop is none other than a BendPak XPR-9FX Two-Post Car Lift. Read More

Here at BendPak, a lot of us put as much love into our own vehicles as we do into the BendPak car lifts we make. And there's nothing like seeing all that love and tender care pay off during a hard day at the track. One of our own intrepid BendPak team went down to Willow Springs Raceway in Rosamond this past weekend for a particularly pulse-pounding Memorial Day. Read More

As you might recall, we reported a couple months ago that BendPak / Ranger equipment was going to be featured on an upcoming episode of DIY's garage makeover show, Garage Mahal. You may also recall that we promised to let you know when they were going air. Today, we're proud to announce that we're here to fill that promise. Mark your calendar! Set your DVR! The Car & Driver Magazine garage renovation episode featuring a BendPak XPR-9FX Two-Post Car Lift, Ranger RS-500 Spray Wash Cabinet, TriMax Air Compressor and a number of Ranger Hose Reels airs June 18th on DIY Network at 6:30 PM PST / 9:30 EST.
