Challenger EH10CK Completion Kit for EH10 Hybrid Inground Car Lift
The Challenger EH10CK is the completion kit for the EH10 Hybrid cassette-style inground car lift, providing the hydraulic, electrical, and pneumatic components needed to complete a lift installation when paired with the separately purchased pre-kit foundation and superstructure. The EH10CK includes 8-1/2" chrome pistons, chrome non-breathing RAM-style hydraulic cylinders, the 2 HP power unit (208-230V, single-phase), standard wall-mounted power controls with raise, lower, and lock release functions, stainless steel air lock release cylinder, lock release valve bracket assembly, hydraulic adapters, PVC chase coupling, and all installation hardware. Built on Challenger's proven EnviroLift platform, the completion kit delivers the core hydraulic and control components that power the lift while the pre-kit provides the below-grade cassette tub and the superstructure provides the above-grade lifting arms and adapters. ALI/ETL certified system when fully assembled. Made in Louisville, Kentucky.
Challenger EH10CK Completion Kit Features
8-1/2" Chrome Pistons with Non-Breathing RAM Cylinders
The completion kit is built around 8-1/2" diameter chrome pistons housed in chrome non-breathing RAM-style hydraulic cylinders that prevent moisture and contaminants from entering the hydraulic system for longer lift life. The enhanced raised wiper design at the top and bottom of each bearing provides superior grease retention while minimizing debris ingress. The long bearing contact surface provides increased stability under load, and the premium powder coat finish on bolsters delivers long-lasting durability in demanding shop environments.
2 HP Electric Hydraulic Power Unit
The EH10CK includes a 2 HP, 208-230V, single-phase, 60Hz motor on a 30A dedicated circuit that delivers reliable lifting performance for professional service operations. The power unit mounts to the wall using the included wall mounting bracket. The motor must be mounted at least 18" above the finished floor per National Electric Code NFPA70. Three-phase motor options (208/230/460V) are available for facilities with 3-phase power.
Standard Wall-Mounted Power Controls
The kit includes standard wall-mounted power controls with raise, lower, and lock release functions. The controls mount near the workbench for convenient access during lift operation, providing clear visibility and straightforward operation. For shops that prefer integrated workbench controls, optional Bench Mount Controls (BMC) may be available as a separate configuration. Contact us for BMC availability on the EH10 platform.
Stainless Steel Air Lock Release System
The mechanical lock system engages every 3" throughout the lift stroke, allowing technicians to select the optimal ergonomic working height to increase productivity and minimize fatigue. The stainless steel air lock release cylinder with in-line air filter promotes longer working life with its corrosion-resistant design, ensuring reliable lock engagement and release even in harsh shop environments with exposure to chemicals, moisture, and road grime.
Modular Three-Component System
Challenger's inground lift platform uses a three-component modular architecture: pre-kit foundation, completion kit, and superstructure. This design lets facilities stage installations across construction phases, replace individual components without disturbing the entire system, and select the exact superstructure configuration needed (3-stage arms, drive-on pads, or other options). The completion kit is the hydraulic and electrical core that connects the below-grade pre-kit to the above-grade superstructure.
Challenger EH10CK Completion Kit Compatibility
EH10 Hybrid Inground Lift Platform
The EH10CK completion kit is engineered for the Challenger EH10 Hybrid inground cassette-style lift platform. Confirm your installed or ordered pre-kit model number before purchasing to ensure compatibility. The EH10 platform shares Challenger's proven EnviroLift cassette architecture with the same 8-1/2" chrome piston bore, sealed recycled polymer containment tub, and mechanical lock system used across the inground lift family.
Three-Component System
A complete EH10 Hybrid inground lift installation requires three component groups:
- Pre-Kit Foundation: The separately purchased cassette pit assembly providing the below-grade sealed recycled polymer tub and structural frame. The pre-kit must be installed with excavation, backfill, and concrete work completed and cured before completion kit installation.
- Completion Kit (This Product): The EH10CK provides the chrome pistons, hydraulic cylinders, power unit, controls, lock release assembly, and all hydraulic and pneumatic hardware.
- Superstructure: The separately purchased above-grade lifting components (3-stage arms with screw pads, drive-on pads, or other configurations) that make contact with the vehicle.
All three component groups are required for a complete, operational lift system.

Challenger EH10CK Completion Kit Installation Requirements
Pre-Kit Foundation Required First
The pre-kit must be fully installed before the completion kit components can be assembled. Pre-kit installation involves excavation, plumbing and leveling the cassette tub, pea gravel backfill (hand tamp only), and concrete work. The concrete must be a minimum 4" thick, reinforced, rated at 3,500+ PSI, and fully cured for 28+ days before proceeding with completion kit installation.
Electrical Requirements
The 2 HP motor requires 208-230V, single-phase, 60Hz power on a dedicated 30A circuit with circuit breaker or time-delay fuse. The electric motor must be mounted at least 18" above the finished floor per National Electric Code NFPA70. Three-phase options (208/230/460V) are available. A licensed electrician must install and verify the electrical supply meets all local codes and manufacturer specifications.
Pneumatic Requirements
90 - 120 PSI clean, dry, lubricated, and pressure-regulated shop air supply required. The air supply must run through a Filter/Regulator/Lubricator (FLR) within 30 feet of the factory-assembled air valve. Failure to provide properly conditioned air will void the warranty on pneumatic components. Air and hydraulic lines run through a 2" schedule 40 PVC chase from the lift to the power unit.
Professional Installation
Professional installation by qualified technicians is required. Completion kit installation involves hydraulic and pneumatic line routing through the PVC chase, power unit wall mounting, cylinder bleeding, controls installation, and connection of the lock release system.

Challenger EH10CK Completion Kit FAQ
What is a completion kit and what does it include?
A completion kit provides the hydraulic and electrical core of a Challenger inground lift. The EH10CK includes 8-1/2" chrome pistons, chrome non-breathing RAM-style hydraulic cylinders, the 2 HP power unit (208-230V, single-phase), standard wall-mounted controls, stainless steel air lock release cylinder, lock release valve bracket, hydraulic adapters, PVC chase coupling, and all installation hardware. It does not include the pre-kit foundation or the superstructure.
What other components do I need for a complete EH10 Hybrid inground lift?
A complete EH10 Hybrid inground lift requires three component groups: the pre-kit foundation (below-grade sealed recycled polymer cassette tub and structural frame), this completion kit (chrome pistons, power unit, controls, and hydraulic hardware), and the superstructure (above-grade lifting arms with screw pads and adapters). All three must be purchased and installed for a functional lift system. Site infrastructure including electrical, compressed air, concrete, and installation labor must also be furnished separately.
What lift platform is the EH10CK compatible with?
The EH10CK is engineered for the Challenger EH10 Hybrid inground cassette-style lift platform. It shares the same proven EnviroLift cassette architecture, 8-1/2" chrome piston bore, and mechanical lock system used across Challenger's inground lift family. Confirm your installed or ordered pre-kit model number before purchasing to ensure proper fit and compatibility.
What are the electrical requirements?
The 2 HP motor requires 208-230V, single-phase, 60Hz power on a dedicated 30A circuit with a circuit breaker or time-delay fuse. Three-phase options (208/230/460V) are available for facilities with 3-phase power. The power unit motor must be mounted at least 18" above the finished floor per National Electric Code NFPA70. A licensed electrician must install and verify the electrical supply meets all local codes.
What air supply is required?
The EH10CK requires 90-120 PSI compressed air that is clean, dry, lubricated, and pressure-regulated. The air supply must run through a Filter/Regulator/Lubricator (FLR) within 30 feet of the factory-assembled air valve. Failure to provide properly conditioned air voids the warranty on pneumatic components. Drain water from the air supply daily to prevent contamination of the lock release components.
What concrete is required for the pre-kit installation?
The pre-kit foundation (purchased separately) requires a minimum 4" thick reinforced concrete floor rated at 3,500+ PSI, fully cured for 28+ days. New construction requires a dedicated excavation per the installation manual. Existing facilities require a minimum 6' x 11' block-out or saw cut. The completion kit cannot be installed until the pre-kit is set, backfilled, and the concrete is fully cured.
Is the completed EH10 Hybrid lift ALI/ETL certified?
Yes. When the EH10CK completion kit is properly installed with the compatible Challenger pre-kit foundation and superstructure, the completed lift system is ALI/ETL certified and designed to the ANSI/ALI ALCTV standard. This certification ensures the lift meets or exceeds industry safety requirements for professional automotive service facilities. All three components must be Challenger factory parts.
What is the difference between a completion kit and upper components?
A completion kit (CK) includes only the hydraulic and electrical core: chrome pistons, power unit, controls, and hardware. Upper components (UC) combine the completion kit and the superstructure into a single package. If you already have or are separately ordering a superstructure, the CK is the correct product. If you want the completion kit and superstructure bundled together, look for the UC designation.
Can I install the EH10CK myself?
Professional installation by qualified lift technicians is required. Inground lift installation involves hydraulic system connections, electrical wiring, pneumatic line routing, cylinder bleeding, and safety-critical calibration that requires proper training, tools, and equipment. Improper installation will void the warranty and may create safety hazards. Contact us for installation service referrals in your area.
Can the completed lift be used outdoors?
No. The EH10 Hybrid inground lift is rated for indoor use only within an ambient temperature range of 41 to 104 degrees F (5 to 40 degrees C). Outdoor installation is prohibited and will void the warranty. The pre-kit cassette, completion kit components, and all hydraulic and electrical systems are designed for climate-controlled indoor service environments.
