With a 2,000 lb capacity and an impressive lift range from 30" to 72", this American-made transmission jack delivers the stability and precision needed for demanding service environments. The innovative two-stage air/hydraulic design combines the speed of 100% air operation with hydraulic precision for exact positioning. Backed by Challenger's 1-year warranty on labor, functional parts, and structural components, this jack is built to deliver years of reliable service in commercial shops and dealership service centers.
Challenger CLHM-HTCJ-2000 Features
Two-Stage Air/Hydraulic Design
The CLHM-HTCJ-2000 features an innovative two-stage lifting system. The first stage operates on 100% air power for rapid positioning, while the second stage uses air/hydraulic operation for precise control during final positioning. This combination dramatically increases productivity by delivering both speed and accuracy in a single unit.
360-Degree Rotating Head with Tilt
The large head plate features 360-degree rotation and 30-degree fore and aft tilting capability. This extensive range of motion allows technicians to position transmissions at virtually any angle, making installation and removal easier and safer. The Acme threaded head plate provides smooth, precise adjustments.
Low 30" Start Height
Designed to maneuver under low obstructions, the 30" starting height allows the jack to fit beneath vehicles on low-rise lifts, drive-on racks, or even floor jacks. This low profile combined with the 72" maximum height provides exceptional versatility across different lift configurations.
Quick-Ratcheting Brackets
Four quick-ratcheting brackets make the head plate flexible and easy to configure for different transmission sizes and shapes. The brackets adjust rapidly to secure the load, reducing setup time and improving workflow efficiency in busy service environments.
Lockable and Steerable Casters
Heavy-duty lockable and steerable casters provide excellent maneuverability throughout the shop. The casters lock securely in place during lifting operations for maximum stability, then unlock for easy repositioning between jobs.
Retractable Tow Handle
The retractable tow handle makes moving the jack around the shop quick and convenient. When not in use, the handle retracts out of the way, keeping the workspace clear and preventing trip hazards.
