About Two-Post Lifts

A 2 post car lift raises the vehicle by its frame on four adjustable arms, so the wheels, brakes and suspension hang free and the floor under the car stays open. Shop Equipment USA is an authorized Rotary®, Forward Lift® and Direct Lift® dealer, and this page lists every two-post lift we sell, from 7,000 to 20,000 lb., grouped by brand and capacity. We deliver, and we can arrange installation.

Rotary® 2 Post Lifts

Rotary two-post lifts run from the 7,000 lb. SPOA7-MP asymmetric pad lift to the 20,000 lb. SPO20 with TRIO arms. The 10,000 lb. SPOA10 (asymmetric) and SPO10 (symmetric) come with 2-stage or All-Vehicle (AV) arms, and the 12,000 lb. SPO12-AV is a symmetric lift with All-Vehicle arms. Extended-height (EH) versions are available for the SPOA7-MP, SPOA10, SPO10 and SPO12-AV, and low-ceiling versions for the SPO12-AV, SPO16-AV and SPO20. The 16,000 lb. SPO16-AV is offered with standard or Cargo All-Vehicle arms, and most models are also listed in a Shockwave™ version.

Forward Lift® 2 Post Lifts

Forward Lift models include the F10 (10,000 lb.), I10 (10,000 lb.) and F12 (12,000 lb.), the professional-grade I12PRO, the 9,000 lb. BP9 low-ceiling lift, and the heavy-duty DP15 (15,000 lb., 2-stage) and DP18PRO (18,000 lb., 3-stage) symmetric lifts for trucks and vans.

Direct Lift® DL9

The Direct Lift DL9 is a 9,000 lb. two-post lift with asymmetric arms and a single-point lock release.

Symmetric or Asymmetric?

A symmetric lift centers the vehicle between the columns, which suits trucks, vans and long wheelbases. An asymmetric lift sets the vehicle further back so the front doors open past the columns, which suits cars and light trucks. Need adapters or height extensions? Shop Rotary lift parts and car lift accessories. Not sure which lift fits your ceiling or slab? Read our concrete requirements guide or call 1-877-771-SHOP (7467).

Frequently Asked Questions

How thick does concrete need to be for a 2 post lift?

Many light-duty two-post lifts call for about 4¼ to 5 inches of concrete rated at least 3,000 PSI, and Rotary uses 5 inches of 3,000-PSI concrete as a general rule. Heavier lifts and seismic areas can need more. The exact requirement is in each model’s installation manual. See our car lift concrete requirements guide.

How much ceiling height does a 2 post lift need?

Most two-post lifts need about 11 to 12 feet of ceiling to fully raise a vehicle. For lower ceilings, look at low-ceiling models: the Forward Lift BP9 is built for spaces with 10-foot ceilings, and Rotary offers low-ceiling versions of the SPO12-AV, SPO16-AV and SPO20. Confirm the model’s specs before you buy.

What is the difference between a symmetric and an asymmetric 2 post lift?

A symmetric lift centers the vehicle between the columns, which suits trucks, vans and long wheelbases. An asymmetric lift sets the vehicle further back so the front doors open past the columns, which suits cars and light trucks. Rotary’s SPOA10 and SPOA7-MP are asymmetric; the SPO10, SPO12-AV, SPO16-AV and SPO20 are symmetric.
