Every repair shop that you go to will always have one these items in their shops because it is easier to fix a car while you are standing up than it is laying down underneath a car with limited light.
Two post lift cracked concrete.
What are the concrete floor requirements of my lift.
I have about 4 1 2 inches of concrete.
Most of our above ground lifts 2 post require 4 inch deep cement with 3000 psi integrity.
Most of our above ground lifts 2 post require 4 inch deep cement with 3000 psi integrity.
Raise the lift to the first lock then crack the bleeder screws at the top of the cylinders to remove air trapped in the system.
It so happends one of the post will have to be anchored over some hairline cracks.
Six 6 inches of concrete at 3000 psi is required.
The bolts are what hold the lift to the concrete.
Four 4 inches of concrete at 3000 psi 12 000 pound two post lifts and higher capacity.
I have purchased a two post lift.
The concrete has some cracks formed since poured about 5 years ago.
Is the crack a result of another pour that resulted in bad adhesion to the first pour.
If the old anchor points are too close to the new anchor points the concrete needs to be replaced before the new lift can be installed.
2 post lifts under 12 000 lb.
When fluid starts to leak out tighten the screws.
It does have rebar.
How deep is the crack.
New concrete slab recommendations four post lift models.
Capacity floorplate chain over.
The bolts provided with our above ground lifts will do their.
All 3 4 inch diameter anchors must be a minimum of 6 inches away from any expansion seams control joints or other inconsistencies in the concrete.
When the lift needs to be replaced the new anchors can not interfere with the old anchor points.
The bottom line is this.
I have worked on both and prefer 2 post the older 2 post dont have latches to keep the arms from moving the result is in the picture the only thing i like 4 post for is brakes or mufflers installing a trans on a 4 post sucks they have 2 post lift up to 15000 lb capacity when you rack a f350 or 450 on a 2 post you have to guess where the center on gravity is if there is a load in back if you.
Im getting ready to install a 2 post car lift in my garage.
The bolts provided with our above ground lifts will do their job if your concrete has not been compromised.
Is the floor safe to install lift.
Thickness 3 000 psi.
Im not sure if these are just surface shrinkage cracks or they go right through the slab.
As everyone knows the 2 post car lift is one of the most useful items that you can have in your repair shop or if you are a diy er in your home garage.
The crack from were the post is going are about 12 inches from lift post.
Do not install any bendpak lift on expansion seams or on cracked or defective concrete.
The bolts are what hold the lift to the concrete.
