Product Overview
The HDS-14X Offers Extreme Length, Extreme Ease-of-Use
The BendPak HDS-14X is an "limo style" four-post lift, characterized by its impressive front-to-back clearance. This design allows for easy accommodation of the longest vehicles, while also being suitable for low-profile and high-stance vehicles alike. This versatility, combined with BendPak's renowned craftsmanship, makes the HDS-14X an ideal addition to any garage or commercial shop looking to expand its service capabilities.
With runways extended 30 inches (76.2 cm) beyond standard models, reaching a total of 229 inches (581.7 cm), the HDS-14X offers exceptional length. Its extended approach ramps provide a safe and gradual incline for vehicle loading, and a generous 70-inch (177.8 cm) rise allows mechanics to stand upright comfortably for various undercarriage services, including oil changes, exhaust work, and wheel service.
