On good news.. Bendpak has a bug in the July 4th sales.. Just got the Ultimate + Motorcycle for $4500... let's see if they honor it... TBC

Totally agree.. but is the best option I see here.. 3rd garage will be just parking my toy car or swapping when needing to do mechanics.. Lately this month I really which I had this. Between S4 slave cylinder burst, new spacers vibrations.. just got an old TT and just doing the cat on it...

This is what I mean.. similar setup to them.. which is not to spec to the spacing documentation from the wall

My current garage is not to spec as is 4" vs 4.25"... and is probably 3k psi.. I been trying to contact the builder but no luck yet. So to be safe I am going with "new slab" which only fits close to the garage wall. I have seen (youtube) many people doing that.. not ideal.. but a stiffer slab...

Thanks @lolaetype! - this is why I am doing the slab to be safe. :) Seems I am on the right path.. remaining question is the rebar into 4" when I cross / mesh them.. how many inches should I drill in? 6"-8"? guessing the hole will be like 8"..12" deep horizontally?..

@gmcgeo - forgot to ask.. when rebar goes into the existing 4" slab.. how many inches in? .. asking for a friend. 😆✌️

Thanks! This helps a lot to google more etc. Sounds like option A for me.

Hi! - I am new to GarageJournal - so trying to catch up with reading here. Will appreciate tips (on what to read) on how to re-pour a slab when next to the wall? And any other comments / questions.. Attached photo is my 3rd garage bay when new and where I plan to put the lift. From "the paper"...
