>Brian & all, When I set up my garage work shop 30' x30' with 16' peak and 14' eves I went with a 5" floor pour for all the strength I would need for my 4 post lift. I want to add another 4 post in the future so I can store all 4 of my cars. Be sure you make the height and width of your garage doors big enough. I did 8' wide and 10' tall roll ups. 8' is barely enough to get the lift in or out assembled.My 2c worth Dave Green

> If primary use is storage, I'd get a 4 post. I bought one from Greg Smith Equipment for my previous house for the Tiger. It's OK for occasional service work, though not with the same accessibility as a 2 post, plus it was a reasonably easy DIY assembly, and I did not have to worry about the slab thickness/strength like a 2 post. It was also useful with the casters to move it easily a couple times, especially when I had it first set up.
> Either way, you'll want to look into raising your garage door rails for maximum clearance.
> I'm considering getting one of each for my current garage, one for storage and one for service work.
