Happy for you!
Tell about the blocks under hoists?
Protecting fresh concrete?

That was the first thing I noticed. Im guessing it was done to gain additional clearance for the lower car/truck. I like the idea and may do the same with my lift.

Yep, more clearance. The '69 C10 was supposed to fit under the Camaro, but the mirrors are frozen in place and are too wide... I don't want to force them and break something. One of the other 3 cars, yet to come home, will go under there instead.
My 2011 Silverado goes under the Chevelle. I had the higher blocks under that lift at the old place for the Silverado, but since I lowered it 2", I didn't need the extra 3" of lift.

Certainly a possibility. Did not think of that! I have two different lengths and height four post style lifts too. My Trailblazer SS and the 56 on a rotisserie will only fit under the taller, longer Pro-park plus models I have.
Mitch?
Still, looks great, I am sure you are happy to have much of your "treasure collection" consolidated.

I had concrete floor put in the back half of the new shed for the lifts and camper to sit on last Thursday.
Today was move in day. Man, it was nice to have that floor to roll the lifts around on, rather than fighting with soft gravel.
Sunday, I unloaded the '70 SS and got it up on the center lift. I don't see getting to it for a couple years, but it's HOME now, to stay.
Happy for you!
