Good question, how do you decide where to position it to lift? The arms extend as well as swing so I'm guessing you have some for/aft leeway as to where you park, the truck is front heavy but the jeep is pretty much balanced.
Dave she seems to make it her full time job, but I'm not sure if she thinks her job is to keep an eye on me or torment.
This mornings job is to determine the side ways position. I'd like to get the one post tight to the wall to gain more room at the end of the lathe (which sticks out into this bay), but they want the anchors at least 6 inches from the edge of the concrete (with 4 inches of 3000 psi cement). That position would put them about an inch away, also have the heat pipes in the floor to avoid. This concrete is I believe 30 mpa (4300psi) with fibreglass chop and 6 inches thick so I'm hoping I can crowd it a little to the edge.
I have a photo of the heat pipes before the floor was poured so have a fairly good idea where they lay. The floor heat isn't on right now, so if I start it up, in a few minutes I can measure the hot spots with a infrared heat gun, to confirm I'm not going to hit water when I drill.

Free advice is worth exactly what you payed for it.
