I picked this up recently and don't really have a need for it like I thought I would. Located west of KC. would like to move this quick as it's taking up room right now.

Bump- price drop to $200. this is a great unit for this price.

Selling my Samson oil change drain unit. This was used at a dealership for a couple years, in like new condiditon. I'm located ~30 minutes west of Kansas City.

That's pretty scary. the one I bought is a (assuming) china made 10k rated lift also. it's different than the one in the video though. Pretty sure mines an Atlas without the stickers. I'm glad the motor/hydraulic unit wouldn't have been able to lift enough weight to cause the lift to fail...

Honestly I'm not really nervous about using the anchors or the lift. As suspected it was easier just to buy standard anchors/bit than source a metric bit. I'm sure some folks would never consider buying something like this without some kind of manufactures warranty or guarantee, but they're...

shop was built in 2007 by the previous owner. I have pretty detailed drawings/specs/permits etc. of the build and they didn't cut any corners on anything. I've been wanting to install a lift since I bought the place in 2008 but life kept getting in the way. Finally found a steal of a deal and...

The instructions don't really mention the anchors, just the concrete requirements. That's a good point though. I'll probably just end up ordering the Hilti anchors. Any tips for shopping for these? do I need to look for a certain grade or weight raiting? I've never bought anchors that...

This is a really good idea I have not tried :lol_hitti Really they don't feel cheap or low quality. I figured the best practice would be to use what the manufacturer sent with the lift

No. :dunno: To be honest I'm assuming they are because the thickest part of the anchor measures ~11/16", and M18 is stamped on the expando-thingy right above the wedge. I don't have much experience with anchoring things to concrete so I was hoping someone would recognize this and tell me I'm...

That was the best idea I could come up with as well. I wasn't able to source long enough 3/4" anchors locally so I would also need to order those. I figured before I did that I would check here to see if anyone had any other advice

I keep running into dead ends so I figure someone would be able to give some helpful advice here I purchased a brand new, unbranded 2 post lift through an auction company last week. It came with it's own anchors and I'd like to use them if I can. Problem is they're metric and I haven't been...

Thanks I'll check them out! I'm really looking for someone in the area that's had experience with a local builder that they would recommend.

anyone?

hey guys, I'm in the Kansas City area and looking to start planning a build. Anyone local have a company they would recommend? I'd like to get quotes for an all metal building and pole-barn style.

I picked up two of the 27 ton log splitters friday. Wish I would have brought a trailer. anyways ended up fitting both of them in my long bed F-250 after a little persuasion. Got home and uncrated the first one and put it together. looks like a pretty good unit. At the $699 (after in store...
