This is for anyone that currently has a C7000 twin post hoist. I need one of the base plate dimensions since they are not the instructions I found online.
I found a template online (can't post link yet !) from "Alpha Bronco" but I don't know how close I can actually go to the wall. the template shows 1" from hole center to plate edge, and I figured if I added another inch I should be good ??
I'm pouring my footings this week but I'm going to cement in studs close to the edge of my garage wall since it's too risky to drive in anchors less than 6 inches from the wall.
My intention is too allow for two positions, one as close to the wall as possible for a "storage mode" and another further away from the wall when I need to work on both sides of my cars. The second position I'll just use the drop in anchors.
for anchors, I was thinking of just using 4 of 3/4" high strength bolts just for the back of the hoist mount and welding the bottoms to rebar which will be encased in concrete.
