BendPak HDS-18EA Four-Post Alignment Lift - 18,000-lb. Capacity
A Four-Post Truck Lift for Every Alignment Application
BendPak's largest-capacity alignment lift easily accommodates vehicles up to 18,000 lbs, while still servicing smaller sports cars and race cars without a problem. The HDS-18EA offers the same safety features and rugged design as every other car lift we make.
Slip plates
Our rear-seated, free-floating slip plates let you perform wheel alignments on heavy trucks while keeping vehicle suspensions relaxed, securely fitted on the slip plates.
Turn plate
Galvanized and corrosion-resistant front-alignment turn plates feature dual recessed turn plate pockets that position your turn plates with very little effort.
Dual-hub cable sheaves
12" diameter cable sheaves located within the runway, along with 4" diameter sheave axles.
Heavy-duty aircraft cable
5/8” (16mm) diameter, high tensile lifting cables hoist your lift in the air in just seconds, internally routed and rarely showing signs of wear.
Adjustable height locking positions
Multiple locking levels on every car lift we make keep you as comfortable as possible.
Secondary lock system
BendPak's cable slack detection acts as a secondary lock system, engaging instantly when slack exceeds operating parameters.
Rolling bridge jacks
Turn your alignment lift into a multi-purpose tool for tire changes and brake service, engaging vehicle frames and lifting vehicles off the runways.
