How do your lifts compare with others?

We are continuously working to improve the quality of our lifts for the safety and protection of our customers. We offer one of the best warranties on the market.


Yes, we do keep repair and replacement parts in stock and usually ships within one to two business day.


We advise to never exceed the capacity of the lift and with proper installation the lift will hold the vehicle.


We suggest using AW32 or AW46.


The main difference between AW32 and AW46 hydraulic fluid is the weight - AW32 is a 10-weight fluid, and AW46 is a 20-weight fluid. AW32 is a good all-season fluid best suited for use in cooler outside temperatures during the fall, winter, and early spring months. AW-32 will flow better in colder weather than AW-46. Customers in colder climates (with unheated garages or service areas) may want to use AW-32. Above ground lifts located in heated garages (or warmer climates) may use either AW-32 or AW-46


Each lift will have a different amount, though it will range between 3-5 gallons


On each of our product pages we have all the specifications listed for the lifts.
