Re: choosing a two post lift

Thanks for all the good info. I'll definitely have thicker footings poured. The concrete bill is already through the roof so a few more inches won't hurt. The shop floor will be a four inch's thick so should I make the lift pads 6? How much larger do I want the pads to be in relation to the mounting surface?

Are smaller cars harder to lift with the wide lift?

I need a few more pros vs cons about symmetrical vs asymmetrical. I'm still not sure which one is more appropriate when and why.
