Joe,
         If you split the weight between two 
wouldn't one lift would have to take the full 
weight eventually at the top as it goes over the 
wall. This would be at the lifts' weakest and 
most extended position. The lifting probably 
isn't that tough but the stability as it's going across is what scares me.
