I think that's his personal garage. I remember asking him about the requirements for installing the lift.

Yep, just my garage at me new house. Before I moved all my **** in, I revamped the garage. Epoxy floors, painted the walls, built storage cabinets and hung metal storage cabinets above the work bench. The lift is an added bonus. I need to working on lighting which is my next project in the near future. Worth every penny! Just took a lot of grunt work on my end to get it this way. The minimum concrete thickness is 4" poured at 3000psi reinforced concrete which is standard on garage slabs.

I've been all over that thread and others. That's how I got started with my garage build. So many good idea's and do an don'ts. I did some researching before I even attempted to do the epoxy floors. I wanted it to be one a done and not mess up lol. I swapped to LED tubes from Costco which are plug an play on the two fixtures that I have and man, did that alone make a difference. I need to add a few around the lift bay, under the storage cabinets above the work bench and maybe one or two more in the main 2 car port of the garage.

Nice Richard !

Is your Weldon controller installed ? Why is the 2345 pump on full tilt / kill mode at start up ? I can hear it buzzing or is that something else ?

The controller is installed and I was wondering the same thing and wasn't sure if its just loud. I need to mess with it a little. Maybe I have the pins switched in the AEM where it activates kill mode instead of idle cruising mode? Ill have to look into it.
