great, I have the pullright slider just installed, what a beast. I am going to try the same thing. hope I don't crash the ceiling joist. not sure what it weighs.
My lift point is right at the garage extension point from our remodel in 2004, so there are two trusses sister'ed together at that point. It also helps that the garage ceiling is 9'. Chris
If you place a 8' 4X4 or 4X6 across three of the trusses it will spread the load out!!
I remember years ago sliding a 16'-4X12 thru the gable vent into the trusses on my Dad's garage. A bit overkill but the beam was free.
