Thanks for another great video! Just a tip... I used to build elevators and set hundreds of the same kind of anchor bolts. An easier and more effective method for driving them in is to not use the hammer to drive it home, but start the anchor bolt with the hammer about an inch in, then take the hammer drill, ON HAMMER ONLY, and center the bit on the anchor bolt with the nut at the top like you did it, just have about a 1/16 inch of the nut up from the end of the bolt to prevent the drill bit from walking. . No bolt mushrooming, or boogered threads and it pushes the bolt in effortlessly. (if you ever need to do this bolt thing again)
I tried to plant my 4 post lift today and had to postpone as concrete was only 4 inches thick...now i have to dig all 4 post to 1 foot to cast with concrete before i be able to bolt my posts😪😔
As a tower climber I cringe at thoes fasteners lol...I've climbed a few jobs with wobbly anchors. I know they work but for towers they're a big no no. Properly sunk j bolts in wet concrete are much more suitable for load. I sunk mine 18" into wet concrete for a 12k lift.

Thanks very much for making this video it's nice to see how things are done before you do it yourself for the first time
appreciate the video, ill likely be doing this job someday on my future shop.
Another thing for safety is to use concrete epoxy to ensure they will not pullout

Nice video what size bit you use
I believe thats was a 3/4 inch bit.
You never showed what those bolts look like
I would no recomend this type of anchor studs for a 2 post car lift why cause they are not strong enough they are very risky.
How thick is that concrete?
Concrete is 8 inches
it is a waste of time and energy if your concrete floor is not reinforced or in other words, plain concrete.
