four-post-lifts
Challenger's 44018 Series is an 18,000 lb. capacity four-post lift with a 194" to 236" maximum wheelbase range for medium-sized transit vehicles. Adjustable runways accommodate a range of tread widths, diamond-plate approach ramps with heavy-duty steel roller wheels ease vehicle positioning, and a built-in runway rail system supports options such as rolling jacks and oil drain pans (sold separately). The alignment model adds a single-point air-actuated lock release that disengages the column locks simultaneously.
