Challenger AR4115EAO Features

Industry-Leading 78" Rise Height

The AR4115EAO delivers the highest rise in the industry at 78", providing maximum headroom for technicians working underneath vehicles. Combined with 17 locking positions, technicians can select the ideal ergonomic working height to increase productivity and minimize fatigue throughout the workday.

Complete Alignment Rack Package

This lift comes equipped with a professional alignment package including two 7,500 lb rolling jacks, an internal air line system, flush mount stainless steel turning radius gauges, 80" rear recessed free-floating slip plates, multi-position work-steps, and automatic wheel stops. Compatible with the industry's latest imaging alignment systems for precise four-wheel alignments.

Open Front Design for Better Ergonomics

The open front configuration provides easy access to adjustment points on both standard and long-length runway racks. This design assists technicians in moving around a vehicle's frame safely and efficiently, boosting workplace safety and productivity in busy shop environments.

Extra-Wide 22" Runways

All-new 22" wide runways with wider drive-thru clearance accommodate wider vehicles and dual tires with ease. The low 7" runway height allows easy access for lower profile vehicles, while louvered approach ramps prevent wheel spin and provide positive vehicle traction.

Heavy-Duty Cable Lifting System

Built for longevity with 9-1/2" steel pulleys featuring Teflon bearings and 1/2" diameter cables that minimize wear and prolong pulley and cable life. Heavy-duty front bearing and yoke assemblies distribute contact load to reduce column stress for extended product life.

Single Point Air Actuated Lock Release

The single point air actuated lock release disengages all column locks simultaneously for maximum productivity and workflow efficiency. Combined with the fully gusseted base plate design that reduces column deflection, this lift is engineered for demanding professional environments.
