AMGO® OH-18 18,000 lb Two-Post Lift
The AMGO® OH-18 is a 18,000 lb-capacity clear-floor two-post lift, engineered for the largest trucks a shop will see. A robust direct-drive system drives four 2-stage arms, locked in by single-point manual release, overhead safety shut-off, automatic arm restraints. The heavy-duty power unit 071102 ships in the crate.
As the tallest-capacity lift in the line, the OH-18 anchors 18,000 lb vehicles on an open floor with three height settings for full-size fleet work.
Who It's Built For
- The biggest-vehicle bays that routinely lift one-ton-plus trucks
- The heaviest trucks a two-post lift can safely handle
- Operations that demand maximum rated capacity
- The rare bay built to anchor an 18,000 lb lift
- Truck and equipment dealers servicing their own inventory
What It's NOT Built For
- There is no heavier two-post option — do not exceed the rating
- In-ground truck pits
- Unrated or damaged floor slabs
- ATVs and bikes
- Wheel-only workflows
Key Differentiator: Heavy-capacity open floor
As the tallest-capacity lift in the line, the OH-18 anchors 18,000 lb vehicles on an open floor with three height settings for full-size fleet work.
- The heaviest fleet and diesel trucks a shop will lift
- Any bay that never lifts more than a full-size pickup
