The new Challenger came in today and is now up and running although the electrical is a temp service pulled from a welder outlet. A trip to the store for conduit and wire is in order this week to make it look right. Until then, I am really loving this lift. 10,000 pound Challenger CL10V3 with 3" and 6" extension adapters as well as truck frame adapters.

Columns in the air and ready for the cross member.

Cross member in and waiting on the arms to go on.

Ready for action. With 13'-8" clearance to the bar, I don't think there will be any problems lifting most anything that will fit on the lift.

That looks really nice, my man. How deep is your slab where the lift is. Have you got a footer for the lift or just a monolithic slab?

It's a monolithic pour with a 5" 3,500 psi slab and 1/2" rebar @ 18"C/C each way but the lifts have a 4'x6' footer that is 3' deep with 4 levels of rebar under each post. A bit more than 2 yards in the footing under each one that was poured with the floor.

It should be enough to hold it up :D

I am going to try and post the garage build tonight but there are a lot of pics for that one.
