Four Post Lifts
Stability Meets Versatility
Heavy Lifting
A four-post lift offers exceptional stability and versatility, making it ideal for lifting a wide range of vehicles, from compact cars to heavy trucks. Its drive-on design is user-friendly and allows quick and easy vehicle positioning, streamlining workflow. The four-post lift’s ability to accommodate vehicles with uneven weight distribution makes it invaluable for busy auto body shops that offer wheel service and maintenance.

Stability and Safety
A 4-post car lift provides exceptional stability, making them safer for lifting heavier and larger vehicles. The vehicle’s weight is distributed across four points, reducing the risk of tipping or imbalance, which is particularly important for alignment work and extensive undercar inspections.
Some models, like our 10K Two-Post, were designed with adjustable asymmetric arms that can be expanded to match the overall width of the vehicle, providing a secure and stable lift. Asymmetric lifts work best with vehicles that have an uneven weight distribution. This means that a tire shop can work on a wide range of vehicles with varying wheelbases and widths, providing a versatile and flexible option for servicing vehicles of all sizes.
Versatility in Vehicle Types
Four-post lifts can accommodate a wide range of vehicles, from small passenger cars to large trucks and commercial vehicles. This versatility makes them ideal for shops that service a diverse clientele, allowing mechanics to perform everything from oil changes to wheel alignments on a single automotive lift.
These machines can be installed with a narrower distance between the two posts, further reducing the space they require. The smaller footprint of two-post lifts allows tire shops to maximize their floor space, accommodating more vehicles in their shop.
Easy to Use
Four-post lifts are user-friendly, as they do not require precise vehicle spotting. Vehicles can be driven onto the lift’s runways, making setup quick and straightforward. This ease of use improves safety and workflow efficiency, especially in busy shops where time is of the essence.

A four-post lift can be used to lift a broad range of vehicles, including most passenger cars, SUVs, light trucks, and even heavier commercial vehicles like large trucks, buses, and RVs. The four-post design provides greater stability because the vehicle’s weight is distributed across four points, making it particularly well-suited for heavier and longer vehicles.
Four-post lifts are generally better suited for vehicles with uneven weight distribution, such as those with heavy rear or front ends, and for vehicles requiring precision work like wheel alignments. They also accommodate vehicles with low ground clearance more easily due to their drive-on design.
