Rated for 9,000 lb, it's suited to professional repair shops doing frequent underbody service, performance shops needing full access for suspension and exhaust work, and every unit ships backed by a manufacturer warranty and our team's support from checkout through delivery.

More About This Two Post Lift
Choosing the right two post lift comes down to matching capacity, build quality, and installation requirements to how it will actually be used. The Forward BP9 9,000lb 2 Post Lift - Low Ceiling/ALI Certified is a two post lift, which lifts from the vehicle's frame or designated lift points -- a space-efficient choice that leaves the floor beneath the vehicle completely open for full underbody access. With a 9,000 lb capacity, it's built as serious car lift equipment rather than a bargain compromise. As auto lift equipment, it's engineered for repeatable, dependable performance rather than occasional light-duty use -- the kind of durability that separates a dependable automotive lift from equipment that cuts corners on materials or safety engineering. Combined with free nationwide shipping (or warehouse pickup on oversized models), a manufacturer warranty on every unit, and support from a real US-based team, this two post lift is a well-rounded choice for a first home garage bay or a working shop floor.
Ready to add reliable, professional-grade lifting capacity to your garage or shop? Order the Forward BP9 9,000lb 2 Post Lift - Low Ceiling/ALI Certified today, backed by free shipping or warehouse pickup, a manufacturer warranty, and support from our team from checkout through delivery.
