Challenger 4115EFO Features

Industry-Leading 78" Rise Height

The 4115EFO delivers the highest rise in the industry at 78", providing maximum headroom for technicians working underneath vehicles. This exceptional clearance reduces fatigue and improves productivity during extended service operations, making undercarriage work safer and more comfortable.

Low-Profile 7" Runway Height

With runways measuring just 7" in height, the 4115EFO accommodates low-clearance sports cars and modern vehicles without requiring drive-on ramps. This lowest-in-industry profile ensures easy loading for virtually any vehicle in your service bay.

Open Front Design for Better Ergonomics

The open front configuration provides unobstructed access to the vehicle's front end, frame rails, and steering components. Technicians can move freely around the vehicle without column interference, improving workflow and reducing time spent repositioning.

Single Point Air-Actuated Lock Release

The pneumatic lock release system disengages all column locks simultaneously with a single action, streamlining the lowering process and maximizing productivity. The system features 17 locking positions so technicians can work at their ideal ergonomic height.

Heavy-Duty Cable Lifting System

Built for durability, the 4115EFO uses 9-1/2" steel pulleys with Teflon bearings and 1/2" diameter cables to minimize wear and extend operational life. The fully gusseted base plate design reduces column deflection and provides stability even on slightly uneven floors.

22" Wide Runways with Anti-Skid Surface

The all-new 22" wide runways easily accommodate wider vehicles and dual-tire configurations. Louvered approach ramps prevent wheel spin during loading and provide superior traction compared to diamond tread or abrasive strips, ensuring safe vehicle positioning every time.

Challenger 4115EFO Applications

  • General Automotive Service: Perfect for oil changes, brake service, exhaust work, and suspension repairs on passenger cars and light trucks with easy access from the open front design.
  • Medium-Duty Truck Service: The 15,000 lb capacity handles medium-duty trucks, work vans, and commercial fleet vehicles that exceed typical two-post lift ratings.
  • Fleet Maintenance Operations: Ideal for municipal fleets, delivery services, and rental car facilities that service diverse vehicle types and sizes throughout the day.
  • Dealership Service Departments: Service everything from compact cars to full-size trucks and SUVs with a single lift that accommodates wheelbases up to 183".
  • Transmission and Drivetrain Work: The 78" rise height provides ample clearance for removing and installing transmissions, transfer cases, and drivetrain components.
