2023 Kia Telluride SX Prestige — two-post lift in a residential garage — what should I verify?

2023 Kia Telluride SX Prestige, about 78,000 miles. Ceiling height looks workable but I'm more worried about slab thickness, concrete strength, anchor location and door tracks. What measurements would you collect before even shopping lifts? Appreciate any ideas on what to check first. What am I missing?

Owner notes beat generic advice here. On the 2023 Kia Telluride in Nationwide, I'd fix the thing you'll notice every day before chasing spec-sheet extras. That's where I'd start. On “two-post lift in a residential garage —,” that was the fork that mattered for me. If you share a photo of the worksheet, easier to sanity-check. I'd rather look cautious in this thread than stuck later.

I'd keep this practical. Verify the cheap/easy branch on the 2023 Kia Telluride before a big repair or a big spend. I'd do that before spending real money. Post the numbers (or the code) and people can get more specific. Doing the boring step first on purpose.

Write down what you already tried. A second data point from another 2023 Kia Telluride owner helps more than a generic diagnosis. Then you'll know the next fork. Not gospel, but it saved me a headache. I'd rather be boring and correct. This is the version I'd tell a friend.

Don't overfit one forum story to your car. If it still isn't clear on the 2023 Kia Telluride, a specialist hour can be cheaper than another round of parts. Then you'll know the next fork. Not gospel, but it saved me a headache. That's coming from doing this as an owner, not a shop. I'm keeping receipts and dates in one folder.
