I measured them with a tape. They are definitely 1/2” diameter.

@Beemer installer hasn’t stated his plan of attach yet. I’m calling him today as when I spoke to him Thur he said he would contact me this past weekend to let me know what day he will be out to move it. My thought are lift will have to move forward roughly 18” to 20” and if it would have been...

@dave*99 thanks. I’ll do some more research on what their anchor looks like.

So epoxy (done correctly) would be superior to wedge anchors?

My understanding of the epoxy process from Challenger is simply epoxy and all thread. These isn't actually an wedge anchor used (see below)?

I assume the Hilti epoxy is superiors to just a Hilti anchor (without epoxy)? Can anyone confirm? I assume challenger doesn't use this as their "standard" install procedure due to the cost of the epoxy?

I knew it was tougher but didn't know it was that tough or expensive. Wonder how many tubes it will take to do 14 holes? I'm curious because I myself will be overseeing this reinstall and they are not going to short me even 1 oz.

UPDATE: I spoke with the North American sale manager for 30 min (no joke 60 seconds after I sent the email he was calling me). Very very nice guy. I expressed my concerns about his employee brushing me off and I wished it didn't have to go this far but this was the entire reason I bought an...

You think Challenger would approve this lol?

I try DIY also. But my FIL paid for the lift because I'm always working on his cars for free. His only request is that a "pro" installed it so he didn't have to worry about a bad DIY install. Bit me in the a** didn't it. Great info and thoughts of a resolution/fix. My thing is Challenger...

Everything has been in text except for a few phone calls. No lawyer talk yet. Seems I might have a solution stay tuned.

Great thought! This never even crossed my mind but a 1/2" hole is much easier to drill than a 3/4"! The "I don't have time" was said over phone call so I don't have "proof". More info on this in my post after I have a chance to make replies. Stay tuned because I was thinking the same thing...

I don't understand why he used 1/2" anchors because the lift is sold with 3/4" anchors. Some reason he has to believe these are "upgrades" right? I'm trying to get a Challenger rep out here but seems I'm making them angry because I've called them a handful of times and "they have more than 1...

Thank you. And yes I didn't specify where I wanted it other than what bay I wanted it in. I was just saying if a customer were to ask me to do something wrong I wouldn't do it, so I definitely wouldn't do it incorrect just because (hope that makes sense).

Thank you. I don't think it's my job to tell a "pro" how to do his job. The entire situation has me sick. I thought I was doing everything right but I honestly think I could have done a better install after all said and done. If I would have just stayed out there while they were installing it I...
