Greetings all -
I am in the very preliminary stages (the 'dream' stage) of building a
workshop that will also be suitable for working on vehicles.
Now that I have acquired a 26 foot motorhome the dimensions of the dream
are altering somewhat.
Although the (now larger) building cost will be an initial hurdle,
eventually I'd want to add a vehicle lift of some sort, and that leads
to the question of the day: You can put a 4-post lift onto an average
strength concrete floor but a 2-post lift requires a bit of pre-planning
and foundation concrete work to provide sufficient 'meat' to properly
anchor a lift.
So, the question is, can a GMC motorhome be lifted on a suitably sized
2-post lift or do I need a larger footprint 4-post? Can it be lifted
most anywhere along the frame (presuming the lift posts are at the CG of
the motorhome) or only at the designated lift points?
Thanks in advance for any advice -
