Removing & Installing 2-Post Lift

This is the process of moving my Challenger LE10 2 post lift (10,000 lb. capacity, bought new 2018). Alot goes into installing a new lift, but there's even more to taking one down and re-installing. I am moving my shop, and this 2-post lift has to come with me. Once you have a lift, you never want to be without one again.

This is a great video, thanks for taking the time to put it together 👍

Nice job, I agree about the anchor length, deeper is better if you have the concrete. I think any thread lubricant can mess with torque values (lube decreases torque because easier to stretch bolt) but you used logic, i.e. not crushing the crap out of the washers.

He should have a shop vac going while drilling

Where is your service area? We need to move a lift from old shop to new location

I'm not sure I followed your logic there. You installed the longer anchors, and on one of them you hit a piece of rebar or something and it would not go any further. And then you said its a great thing you chose longer anchors because if that happened with a short anchor, you'd be screwed.
You're saying that if the rebar happened to be 2 inches under the surface, you would not be able to hammer in the short anchors far enough because they would hit it. But then somehow you would be able to hammer the longer anchors in deeper? If the rebar would be in a place to interfere with a short anchor, it would also block the long anchor.

The anchors should have the mushroomed section about center of concrete thickness. Deeper isn't better. Need to match fastener length to concrete thickness. The provided anchors are perfect for a 6" slab.

You think you could pick those up with out a tractor ?

Did you install over any expansion cracks?
