Challenger CL10AV3-2-DPC 10,000 lb Versymmetric® 2-Post Lift

Bought a 10K two-post lift only to find a taller SUV or van won't clear the columns at full rise? That's the ceiling-clearance gap the CL10AV3-2-DPC closes.

The CL10AV3-2-DPC runs on Challenger's Versymmetric® platform, with directSPOT™ 3-stage front and rear arms so the same lift reaches factory lift points on a sedan one cycle and a full-size pickup the next, without an arm or adapter swap in between. Dual pendant controls let a technician at either column raise or lower the vehicle without walking to a single fixed station.

Columns stand 13' 2" / 13' 8" tall on this configuration — plan for a 14'+ ceiling minimum and measure to your lowest overhead obstruction, not the ceiling peak, before you order.

Who the CL10AV3-2-DPC Is Built For

  • Shops with a 14'+ ceiling that keep running into column-height limits — the CL10AV3-2-DPC's 13' 2" / 13' 8" columns give you the overhead clearance a standard-column 10K model can't, without forcing a jump to a 12K or 15K lift you don't need for the capacity.
  • Bays that see both passenger cars and trucks in the same shift — Versymmetric® arm geometry spots symmetrically for trucks and vans and asymmetrically for cars, so the tech doesn't reconfigure anything switching between a sedan and a pickup.
  • Two-tech bays where waiting on a single control station slows things down — dual pendant controls let whoever's at either column run the lift, which matters most during a busy morning rush when both sides of the vehicle need attention at once.
  • Shops that don't need QuickCycle™ speed — standard-speed rise and lower is plenty for lower-volume bays or shops that would rather put the budget toward other equipment.
  • Buyers who want one team for sizing, delivery, install, and service — Alamo measures your bay, installs the lift, and stays the call for warranty and service afterward instead of handing you off to a separate installer.

What the CL10AV3-2-DPC Is NOT Built For

This is not the right choice when your ceiling can't clear the 13' 2" or 13' 8" columns, your vehicles exceed 10,000 lbs, or your slab hasn't been verified. If you're close on any spec, call Alamo at (817) 865-3707.

Important sizing note: The CL10AV3-2-DPC columns stand 13' 2" or 13' 8" with a 12' ½" overall width. Measure your bay and confirm the vehicle mix before purchase.

What Makes the CL10AV3-2-DPC Different

Configuration Highlights

  • Versymmetric® directSPOT™ arms - 3-stage front and rear, lift symmetrically or asymmetrically in one bay.
  • Controls: Dual Pendant Controls (one at each column).
  • Column height: 2' column extensions raise the columns to 13' 2" or 13' 8" for extra lifted clearance.

Bay Planning Numbers

The measurements that matter: 13' 2" or 13' 8" column height, 12' ½" overall width, and 106" drive-through clearance. Check these against doors, lights, air lines, drains, and any overhead obstruction.

Electrical and Install Coordination

The published electrical line is 208-230V, 60Hz, 1Ph, 20A. Have a licensed electrician confirm the circuit and final local requirements before installation day.

Best For
  • Bays that clear 13' 2" or 13' 8" columns
  • Vehicles within 10,000 lbs
  • Two-tech, high-volume workflow (dual pendant)
Not Ideal For
  • Ceilings that can't clear 13' 2" or 13' 8"
  • Vehicles above the rated capacity
  • Unverified slabs or unknown concrete
  • Low overhead obstructions not yet measured
