    How to choose the right lift for your shop

    Aug. 6, 2019
    When choosing a lift consider your customer, keep safety top-of-mind, and don’t forget to factor in features to reap the greatest ROI.
    Photo courtesy of Mohawk Lifts
    Two-post lifts range in capacities from 6,000 to 30,000 lbs. It is important to note that while the full weight of the vehicle may fit these parameters, it is critical to determine if the weight is distributed evenly. For instance, the bulk of a work truck load may be at the rear of the vehicle while the lift is raised.
