"4 posters are less picky about slab thickness vs a 2 post" Those were my thoughts also...I would think a because a 4 post has the weight spread out, it would not as critical as a 2 poster.... Question is: To lift or not to Lift? I am going to check my slab again, I only checkd one corner...

Actually this entire process is probably dead in the water.....been reading more, and even for a 4 post lift they want a concrete thickness of 4" 3000psi....my slab is just over 3".....so looks like I spend more time laying on my back.....

Just for info, I spoke with several companies selling 4 post lifts. All of them said that leaving it outside is not a issue. They said to cover the motor, and make sure the cables, pulley's etc were well lubricated. None of them had a issue with it.

I am aware that it is designed to be used inside....I am pretty sure that using it in a driveway, that meets the 4" thickness requirement would be fine....It is designed to be portable, you take it outside on a nice day, use it and then store it in the garage... I plan on putting mounting areas...

anyone know of a discount code for the Max Jack? Everyone has free shipping, ...If I could get the cost under $2k I would buy the thing today...

Located in South Carolina.... Thanks for the advice.......I think you are probably right.....the harder I look the harder it will be.....

Appreciate the input.....I have been looking for a used one for what seems like forever....I even have a friend who is the service Manager at a large Honda dealership keeping an eye out....problem is, they last a long time and hardly ever get changed out..... So....as of right now, I am leaning...

I (like alot of others) am in the pleminary stages of buying a lift. Getting older, and just tired of laying on my back under a car. And, like most, space is a issue. Have looked at the Max Jack, like it, But is it really comfortable working under it using a "chair" creeper? The best option...
