Yes, overkill, but I only want to do it once.
Just my thoughts from being around cars, and lifts for over 50 years, I hope this is helpful...........  |
I had the rebar and 4 x 4 feet poured for my two post lift when I had the barn built. Rotary Lift SPO10 which is fine for the Pontiacs.

Do it once and do it right.
