    Wow.

    My wife would give me all kinds of lifts if my garrage was that spiffy.

    That is really nice, and I am inspired. Been thinking 12' dual posts, because I am done going under cars on stands and a scooter. At least until next week.......knockknock.

    I presume you built that garage and had the floor/engineered altered as shown?

    I like the scissor jack lifts. They are inexpensive, and work for most issues you need a lift for. Engine pull - perhaps not. But to be able to do so many other things for all of the other cars.....WIN. My biggest issue with them is that they are above floor. You have solved that.

    Nicely done.

    Thanks!
    We moved into the house in 2005. It was constructed in 1978. Garage floor was severely cracked and sinking in areas... We had to do something due to snow melting off the cars, seeping thru the cracks and causing more errosion under the slab. We opted to simply mud jack to relevel and stabilize the floor. Then, I cut the floor for the lift using a rented cement diamond saw, excavated the concrete and about 18" of fill. Repoured high-strength concrete to a level for a flush install. We then hired an epoxy floor contractor to "tie" and grind the floor level before coating.

    Tear-out, repour garage cost (no lift, no epoxy): $8000 (Lots of hand work due to paver driveway)
    Mudjacking, concrete saw and mixer rental, epoxy contractor, lift, diamond plate cover: $4100

    Car can be 48" in the air in 2 minutes.... Priceless!
