The Only Heavy-Duty Car Lift You’ll Ever Need
The BendPak HDS-40 four-post lift is engineered to tackle even the most massive vehicles with brute force and precision. This heavy-duty lift incorporates all the advanced features found in BendPak’s robust lineup, including ergonomic controls, oversized sheaves, over-engineered lift components, and aircraft-quality cables, ensuring an unparalleled lifting experience.
For vehicles requiring extended support, the HDS-40 provides longer runways, significantly reducing the risk of accidental vehicle damage. This ensures that even the largest 40,000-lb. trucks and commercial vehicles can be safely and securely positioned for service.
- **Heavy-Duty Capacity:** Capable of lifting massive vehicles up to 40,000 lbs. (18,143.7 kg).
- **Extended Runways:** Designed to safely accommodate the longest and heaviest trucks and commercial vehicles.
- **Dual-Hub Cable Sheaves:** Features 12-inch (30.5 cm) diameter sheaves with 4-inch (10.2 cm) axles, over-engineered for safer lifting, low maintenance, and synchronized smooth lifting.
- **Heavy-Duty Aircraft Cable:** Utilizes 3/4-inch (1.9 cm) diameter, 6 x 25 galvanized lifting cables, resistant to rust, chemicals, heat, and humidity, requiring minimal maintenance.
- **Built-in Lubrication:** Self-lubricating grease nipples on sheave and sheave axles ensure smooth cable operation and prevent floor mess.
- **Flow Restrictor:** Integrated into the hydraulic cylinder for a safe, gentle descent in the rare event of a hose rupture.
- **Large Base Plates:** 12 x 12 inch (30.5 x 30.5 cm) base plates offer extreme security and stability when bolted to concrete flooring.
- **Spring-Loaded Safety Locks:** Audible clicking locks engage at multiple levels, providing 13 versatile locking positions for operator comfort and safety.
- **Push-Button Pneumatic Lock Release:** A single button simultaneously disengages all four locks for rapid and balanced descent, featuring aircraft-quality stainless steel and aluminum pneumatic cylinders.
- **Secondary Lock System:** A cable-slack detection device acts as a backup, shutting down the lift completely if any cable slack occurs, ensuring maximum safety.
- **Integrated Design:** All components (cables, sheaves, axles, hydraulic cylinder) are internally routed for a cleaner aesthetic, side-by-side stacking capability, and protection from shop conditions.
- **Adjustable Height Locking Positions:** Offers 13 locking positions for greater versatility and operator comfort compared to standard 10-position lifts.
- **Electric-Hydraulic Power System:** Features ergonomic one-push button control, a stabilizing pressure relief valve, and a weatherproof casing for reliable performance during heavy use.
- **Flexible Protective Conduit:** Non-conductive and durable tubing wraps around all cables and airlines to prevent wear and accidental shocks.

The lift itself is fantastic — heavy duty, smooth operation, great safety features. But assembly was a real project. Plan for a full weekend with help. Once it’s up, though, it’s perfect.
Patricia Flores –
Six months in and this lift has been flawless. Use it at least twice a week for various projects. The hydraulic pump is quiet, the locks engage cleanly, and the runways have plenty of length for my extended cab truck.
Mary Thomas –
As a retired mechanic, I know quality when I see it. This lift meets commercial standards in terms of build quality and safety features. The welds are clean, the hardware is grade 8, and the hydraulic system is properly engineered.
John Torres –
The lift itself seems solid and works well now that it’s assembled. But the installation was a nightmare — poor instructions, some bolt holes didn’t align perfectly, and I had to fabricate a couple of spacers. If you’re handy, you can make it work.
Ashley Flores –
Overall a very solid four-post lift. Build quality is great and it feels very safe. Only reason for 4 stars is the instructions could be much better — had to figure out a few steps on my own. But the lift itself is excellent.
Christine Johnson –
It’s a functional four-post lift at a competitive price. The finish has some rough spots and the hydraulic pump is noisier than I expected. It works, but it’s not as refined as more expensive options.
Karen Ramirez –
Really like this lift overall. Sturdy, safe, and well-built. The only thing keeping it from 5 stars is the hydraulic fluid wasn’t included and the manual didn’t specify the type clearly. Minor issue for an otherwise great product.
Kimberly Martinez –
Really happy with the quality and performance of this lift. Took almost a month to arrive though, which was frustrating. Once installed, it works flawlessly. Would give 5 stars if shipping was faster.
Kathleen Howard –
Finally got tired of crawling under my vehicles on a creeper. This lift changed everything. Setup was straightforward following the manual, and the quality of the steel and hardware is impressive. Hydraulic system is smooth and quiet.

The lift is excellent quality and works great. However, the installation manual is poorly translated and some diagrams are hard to follow. YouTube helped fill in the gaps. Product itself deserves 5 stars.
Gary Jackson –
I run a small side business doing maintenance for friends and family. This lift handles everything from sedans to light trucks without breaking a sweat. The powder coat finish still looks new after months of use.
Paul Adams –
Great build quality and solid performance. The approach ramps could be a little longer for low-clearance vehicles, but otherwise this is an outstanding lift for the price.

Installed this in my 2-car garage and it transformed my workspace. The runways are wide enough for my full-size truck and the lifting speed is smooth and consistent. Safety locks click in positively. This is professional-grade equipment at a fair price.
Kenneth James –
This lift completely changed how I work on my vehicles. No more ramps and jack stands. The safety system gives me peace of mind and the whole unit feels overbuilt in the best way possible. Highly recommend.
Ronald Walker –
After months of research, I pulled the trigger on this lift and couldn’t be happier. The build quality is top-notch — heavy gauge steel, clean welds, and a powder coat that looks like it’ll last. Raised my SUV for the first time and had zero concerns about stability.
Debra Cook –
Went from a cluttered single-car garage to a fully functional two-car setup thanks to this lift. Park one car on top, work on another below. The installation guide could be better, but the product itself is outstanding.
