[QUOTE="DW Ruby, post: 330466, member: 8592"] To clarify a couple of points: A) Most lifts (or components thereof) are made in China - mine included. [INDENT]There is one I looked at manufactured totally in the US, but it was increadibly over-designed with a price tag to match ($30,000.00).[/INDENT] [INDENT]There is not much point in having a 10,000 lb capacity lift for a 4,000 lb car.[/INDENT] [INDENT][/INDENT] B) The issue with the concrete thicness on the floor is not horrible to overcome. [INDENT]A section of the existing slab (about 3 ft x 6 ft) needs to come out, dig down and remove 6" of underlying base, then cast a new reinforced concrete 'panel'.[/INDENT] [INDENT]Have somebody knowledgeable take a look at the base, and the reinforcing, before placing the new concrete.[/INDENT] [INDENT][/INDENT] C) The introduction of 4 legged bar stools into the [I]"help, I've fallen and can't get up"[/I] analysis will surely taint the results offered. [INDENT]Singnificant research and data collection remains outstanding.[/INDENT] [INDENT] [/INDENT] [INDENT][/INDENT] [/QUOTE]
