Installing My BendPak XPR-10AS Two Post Lift From Summit Racing! Is It Worth Doing It Yourself?
What happens here
Using a hammer drill with a large bit, drill holes into the concrete floor through the pre-drilled holes in the base plates of the lift posts. The concrete slab's thickness is measured (4.75 inches) and confirmed to meet the manufacturer's minimum requirement of 4.25 inches, ensuring a secure anchor. The presenter points out that the drilling of these holes allows the insertion of anchor bolts that will hold the lift securely.
Goal: Securely anchor the lift posts to the concrete floor.
