Hofmann 15K 4-Post Alignment Lift – Extended, Galvanized #EELR708GPKG

Hofmann 15,000 lb 4-Post Alignment Lift — Extended, Galvanized

Bare steel runways in an alignment bay take a beating — road salt tracked in on winter tires, coolant drips, brake dust, and standing moisture from washed vehicles all work at exposed metal over years of daily use. Shops in northern climates or coastal areas watch that corrosion creep into cable channels and pivot points long before the lift's mechanical components are actually worn out.

The Hofmann EELR708GPKG pairs the extended-length 15,000 lb 4-post platform — 277" overall length for long-wheelbase vehicles — with galvanized runway construction instead of standard painted steel. The corrosion-resistant finish is built into the runway itself, so the parts most exposed to road salt, moisture, and daily wear hold up longer without the surface rust and pitting that eventually shows up on unprotected steel. It's the same extended footprint as the Lights & Locks version, just with galvanized durability instead of the lighting/locking package.

Who the EELR708GPKG Is Built For

• Shops in salt-belt or coastal regions where winter road salt and moisture accelerate corrosion on standard steel runways.
• Operations running long-wheelbase trucks and vans that need the 277" extended runway, without paying for the Lights & Locks package they don't plan to use.
• Facilities that wash vehicles in-bay or run high-moisture environments where standing water on exposed steel is a routine occurrence.
• Shops planning for a longer equipment lifecycle who want to minimize runway maintenance and repainting over the years.
• Dealerships and fleet operations with the 14' x 26' bay footprint available for the extended-length configuration.
• Buyers who specifically want galvanized corrosion resistance as their primary upgrade rather than integrated lighting or locking hardware.

What the EELR708GPKG Is NOT Built For

If integrated LED lighting and a locking control system matter more to your shop than corrosion resistance, the EELR708LLPKG gives you the same extended footprint with Lights & Locks instead of galvanized runways. And if your bay is climate-controlled and salt exposure isn't a concern, the base extended EELR708APKG covers the same runway length without the galvanized upgrade.

What Makes the EELR708GPKG Different

15,000 lb. Lifting Capacity

At 15,000 lbs, the EELR708GPKG handles passenger vehicles, SUVs, vans, and light commercial trucks in one rated capacity — the daily mix most alignment bays actually run, without turning away the heavier end of your fleet work.

Extended-Length Galvanized Runways

The 277" extended runway supports long-wheelbase vehicles end to end, and the galvanized finish protects that runway surface from the road salt, moisture, and brake dust that eventually corrode standard painted steel. That combination means the longest, most exposed running surface on the lift is also the most protected against the wear that actually shortens equipment life in the field.

Open Front Alignment Design

With no crossmember obstructing the front approach, your tech has clear access to front suspension components, steering racks, and cross-members during camber and caster work — shortening diagnostic time on vehicles with tight front-end geometry.

Integrated Rear Slip Plates

Built-in rear slip plates let the rear wheels settle naturally into position during alignment instead of binding against a fixed surface, which improves the accuracy of toe and thrust-angle readings — especially important on the longer-wheelbase vehicles this extended configuration is designed for.

Turntable Pocket Compatibility

Pre-built turntable pockets mean your alignment console's front turntables drop straight in without field-modifying the runway — a meaningful time savings on install day and a cleaner setup for accurate steering-angle readings.

• Runway Jack Compatibility: Supports optional rolling bridge jack systems
• Low Maintenance Cable & Pulley Design: Improves long-term durability and serviceability
