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.

Best For
  • The heaviest fleet and diesel trucks a shop will lift
Not Ideal For
  • Any bay that never lifts more than a full-size pickup
