Let's discuss. I'm in the market for one for my shop. I'm needing one that my dually will fit on, and it weighs 9k. What have you used? Don't need the two post/four post argument, though. Four is what I want. šŸ˜†

So far on my list is the Triumph 11k, a Halo 10k, an Olympic 10k "the dually", and a Bendpak 14k. Prices range between $5k and 8k on those.
 
I have a Challenger 14K 4 post, with the extended runways. I had several 4 door long bed trucks up on it over the last couple years. No dually trucks yet, but it has plenty of room between the post to fit the fenders. I had narrowed my search down to the Bendpak 14 and the Challenger 14. I went with the Challenger mainly because I have a 10k Challenger 2 post and it has been a fine piece of equipment.

I probably watch too much YouTube but wildfire lifts that VGG reps/co-owns also make a large four post that will hold a dually

I was gonna mention wildfire as well. Several channels I watch have them in their shop.

At work we have a 14k Bendpak with two center trolleys. Itā€™s blue and yellow and lifts shit. YMMV

Hadnā€™t even looked at them. FWIW while I was in the service all the on base service bays had bendpak equipment. Almost all bases have had a car center available for private use and they all had bendpak too.

Man that sucks. Just looked and the one on Bragg is closed until further notice. When I was stationed in Hawaii my buddy and I used the auto skills center constantly to fix and flip island beaters we would sell to other soldiers who needed a cheap island car. We got shut down by the state for doing too many title transfers inside of a year or get a dealers license lol
 
@maulcruiser I've got an Amgo 10H 2-post lift on order, so no judgement here. Not many companies offer an extended height lift and the Amgo had good reviews from what I could find. Picking mine up from Manning, SC as well when they get them back in stock. Salesman said 3-4 weeks for the restocking order to come in.

I'm sure I'll get judged (or at least strongly side-eyed), but I decided on an AMGO Pro-12SX and two 6K lb. bridge jacks. Out the door for $7700, and I'll pick it up in Manning, SC.

Please post pics when assembling or assembled. Never seen the bridge jack set up. Seems like a stable way to go for heavy stuff. Would like to do something like this myself.

Awesome! Yeah, I apparently got the last one they had in stock, and Bryce over there said it would be mid-October before another shipment arrived from China. Maybe that boat catches a good current and you'll get it sooner.

I will do both. The instructions are looking reasonable to me. I've read complaints that they need to be better, but this manual online is showing a revision date of 05/2026, so we'll see.
