For convenience, portability and compact storage, nothing beats the patented MaxJax® portable car hoist. Thanks to its unique portable two-post design, the MaxJax offers greater versatility and serviceability when compared to traditional mid-rise or low-rise garage lifting systems.
It’s the features you get that set the MaxJax apart from the rest. Every MaxJax unit is loaded with the right features that make it the best choice when looking for a new car hoist. Read through the long list of features this car hoist has to offer and you’ll easily come to the conclusion that the MaxJax is no ordinary garage hoist.
No other low-rise or mid-rise hoist system provides more under-car clearance and unobstructed floor space than the MaxJax lifting system. Now you can easily access engine undersides, transmissions, drive-shafts, starters, differentials or anything else requiring under-car access.
A two-post car hoist with built-in wheels that allows you to use the hoist when you need it, then conveniently store it out of the way when not in use keeping your garage and vehicle lanes clutter-free.
Internally threaded recessed drop-in anchors and quick-connect/disconnect hydraulic couplers provide for fast and simple set-up. NOTICE: Before drilling into post-tension garage floors, always consult a building engineer for determining cable locations and where to avoid drilling.
A cast iron gear flow divider is the heart of the MaxJax® system, providing precisely equalized lifting. The specially designed flow divider/combiner is a positive-displacement fluid control device with precise flow division of hydraulic power from one column to the other even if load balance pressures change.
Our standard mobile power unit cart is small enough to be stored out of the way and features a storage area for the hydraulic hoses. The hydraulic power unit uses a single-phase motor that requires 110-volts AC and a 23 amp breaker. The industrial grade power cord is 6-Ft. long. A simple push-button switch raises the hoist and a push lever controls the lowering. Simple quick-disconnect hoses can be positioned easily for single or dual column operation.
Increases overall arm positioning for lifting a variety of different vehicles that have Uni-body construction, OEM recommended pick-up points, or wide and/or narrow frame configurations. Every MaxJax order includes four (4) medium height adapters and four (4) stackable standard lift pad adapters.
Fit under the lowest compact and sport vehicles or custom motorcycles with lowered frames.
Each arm is equipped with durable arm restraints that automatically engage each time the hoist is raised. When the hoist is lowered, the gear type arm restraints automatically disengage to provide easy positioning of the lift arms.
Rather than using roller bearings that need constant lubrication and maintenance, we use futuristic full-floating UHMW ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene load bearings that never need lubrication and last virtually the life of the hoist.
We purposely manufacture the columns using single-piece construction for added strength and less fatigue under heavy load conditions.
By utilizing two low-pressure HVLP Direct-Drive cylinders, we’ve eliminated the need for lifting chains or screw mechanisms most commonly found on other hoist designs. HVLP Direct-Drive technology offers better reliability, smoother operation and less maintenance.
Integrated into every MaxJax® hydraulic cylinder is a one-piece, pilot fitted, machined steel piston wrapped with specially designed, pressure loaded U-cup piston seals, backups and wear bands that virtually eliminates any fluid bypass. The micro-smooth chrome-rod is machined from high yield, ground and polished C-1045/50 micro-alloy steel and plated to a minimum of .001″ diametrically, to ensure superior cylinder operation and life.
Our optional motorcycle adapter kit allows you to safely lift motorcycles, ATV’s or other motorized vehicles to a comfortable working height.
