I am using a 7k# lift on a 4" slab with no problems. Regularly lift a F
150.

Well, I've come to the end of my rope regarding not having a lift in my
shop, so I'm going to buy one. Thinking about this one:
http://www.gesforless.com/product_info.isg?products_id=343
Anybody have this model? The specs call for a 4" minimum slab. My shop
has a ~4" slab but that seems awfully thin for a 10K lift? I will be
lifting my 3/4 ton ext. cab pickup with this thing. It looks like there
is already a "stress" crack in the concrete running near the area where
the base plate will be bolted down. How hard is it to pour a thicker
flush pad within the existing 4" slab? How do I "connect" the thick pad
with the existing slab?
