    Spill512's rack thread

    Can anyone ID this rack? Or even just tell me if it's quality or junk?

    It's non branded I would guess. Probably solid though.

    Looks like an oldskool custom fabricated rack to me. I'd be happy to use it, but some won't. It looks strong, but its a shame they didn't take some off the top portion, and stick it on the spotters as they seem just a little short. Give it a lick of paint and it'll look a bit prettier.

    Thanks, hmmm well he's selling it for $175. What do you think of that price?

    There's also this Cybex rack for $150. That's suppose to be a good brand right? No safety bars though. Not sure if I should get this one or the other, or neither. (looks like it's torn near the front but he has 2 so maybe the other one isn't)

    Without safeties I wouldn't touch the Cybex. I can't help you on whats a good price or not, but I would try and get that very cheap, and then maybe have a welder pimp it with some new safeties. its all reletive to what price you get it for as to whether its worth it though.

    That Cybex aint a power rack. Looks like a plate & bar storage rack.

    I would show up to look at the first one with safety bars and make sure it was solid then offer him $100 cash, but be willing to pay $150. Not worth more than $150 to me cause it isn't branded and has no plate storage.


    My 2 cents. But I'd personally wait on a sumo style power lifter rack that has a platform near the top for sliding a bench in. Animal (I think) has one like I am looking for I am sure pics of it are floating.

    greens for them?

    Wider base? Mine only leaves about an inch- inch and a half between plates and safeties.

    I sold a somewhat similar un-branded squat rack (with plate storage) last year for $100, and if took a lot longer to sell at that price than I had expected. I wouldn't pick up another one unless it was an absolutely smoking deal on a branded heavy commercial piece...and even then I'd have to seriously think it over.

    That Cybex is a squat rack (with half of it missing). I consider it the best one and Freemotion squat rack the second best. They both have adjustable/removable safeties. The Cybex safeties will rotate making them a perfect option for doing body-weight triceps extensions. It's also good for doing deadlifts and rack pulls.

    Here is mine:

    A couple of pictures I found on internet. The second one is the Freemotion squat rack

    Uhh...maybe yours looks more narrow cause of the bench in it?


    I'm not planning a trip back to Dynabody though unless I got a grand in my pocket...I'm not interested in tire kicking them again. They are nice folks and it's a bit of a drive, I know they have good used stuff and will haggle when cash is in hand so that's what I plan to do.

    Good to know, may have you scout it out once I got the cash together to see if it's worth a trip.

    Here is mine:


    A couple of pictures I found on internet. The second one is the Freemotion squat rack
    How difficult would it be to find J-Hooks for something like this? I could use it as an alternative to a power rack(since no good deals are around my area) and use it for benching as well since the safeties look removable.

    Thumbs up

    There is a website I can supply once home where you can get J-hooks fabricated for any rack by supplying a few measurements.

    Yeah, that'd be awesome. What kind of price is it usually?

    Those J-Hooks are technically called Detent Pins. The part number for them is 5570-206. Cybex charges $26.71 per pin. The squat rack comes with 4 of them. I am attaching the manual for the rack and a screenshot from Cybex Parts store:

    And here is a picture of the detent pin I took for you. I doubt custom fabricators would take up a job of making j-hooks for this particular rack. If you look at the holes on the rack you'll notice that the front and back holes have different diameters. On the other hand, cutting a solid bar to size and reducing its diameter at one end with a lathe would probably suffice.
