Help raising a 4 post lift
I want a corvette but my garage was full, so I got a 4 post lift. I measured, I have the space,but it is tight. My problem is I need 2 more inches to get the Vett under the lift, but I can not go up one more click (4.5 inches per click) and have a safety margin for the top car to hit the ceiling. Is it ok to put a 2 inch concrete pad under each of the 4 posts? I can’t be the only one with this issue with needing to be between the clicks. Thank you.

Instead, please find the correct section, based on the generation of the Corvette.
Go back to the main forum page:
https://www.corvetteforum.com/forums/
Now start to slowly scroll down until you see your generation of Corvette listed.
Since it's a general topic, you might want to pick the General Discussion section for whatever generation Corvette you own.
