why do you want a 4 post? You are limiting the amount of work you can do unless you throw in a few air jacks. They take up a lot more space. I recommend a 10,000 lb asymetric 2 post. There's not much you can't do with it and they don't take up a ton of space. You can score one of those for around $2400 shipped if you beat them up on the $

I got a 40x40 shop and i dont need anything thats to big in weight load and i dont want to bolt it to the floor as the 4 post doesnt need to be bolted.

Just remember with the drive on's your wheels will be still on the ground unless you buy the air jacks. I've worked with these guys quite a bit and I always negotioated their prices down quite a bit.
