Challenger EW10CK-BMC-QC Completion Kit Overview
Your cassette is already in the ground. Now you need the above-ground hardware to turn it into a working bay. The Challenger EW10CK-BMC-QC completion kit delivers the superstructure, 3-stage arms, bench-mount controls, and QuickCycle power unit for the EW10 series inground lift, giving you a 10,000 lb capacity bay with 88 inches of extra-wide drive-through clearance. That clearance is the real differentiator here: it's wide enough to lower EV battery packs without losing standard cassette functionality for conventional vehicles.
This kit ships with bench-mount controls (BMC), so your controls mount inside a workbench rather than standing as a separate pedestal. Cleaner look, easier reach, less clutter around the bay. The QuickCycle upgrade is bundled in, cutting rise time to 24 seconds compared to 41 seconds on the standard EW1020. That's nearly half the cycle time on every vehicle you touch, and across a full day of service, those seconds add up to real throughput gains.
Challenger's 3-stage front and rear arms with double-telescoping screw pads give you precise pick-point positioning on wide-body EVs, luxury sedans, and full-size trucks alike. The EW10 platform also eliminates the traditional bolster, so there's nothing to drive over when pulling vehicles in and out. Combined with ALI/ETL certification, you're getting a lift system that meets the safety standards your insurance carrier and local inspectors expect to see.

Call to confirm included accessories and verify whether the EV Kit is bundled or sold separately for your configuration.
Installation and Setup
One of the biggest advantages of the EW10 platform is a simplified concrete pour. Instead of the three separate pours required by older inground designs, this system needs only one. That's less downtime during construction, fewer coordination headaches with your concrete contractor, and a faster path to a working bay.
You'll need 208V-230V single-phase power at 60Hz for the 3HP QuickCycle motor, plus shop air between 90 and 120 psi. The bench-mount controls require integration into your workbench, so plan your bench placement and conduit routing before the superstructure goes in. Professional installation by a qualified lift technician is strongly recommended to maintain warranty coverage and ensure ALI/ETL compliance.
Applications
The 88-inch drive-through clearance lets you lower battery packs out of electric vehicles while still functioning as a standard inground lift for conventional service work.
3-stage arms with double-telescoping screw pads reach specific pick-up points on wide-chassis luxury sedans and performance vehicles that narrower lifts can't accommodate.
The QuickCycle upgrade's 24-second rise time keeps vehicles moving through your bay faster, making this kit a strong fit for shops running back-to-back appointments all day.
From compact EVs to full-size trucks, the 10,000 lb capacity and 20" to 42" arm reach cover a wide mix of makes and models without swapping adapters between every job.
Model Comparison
The EW10 platform comes in two configurations. Here's how they compare:
| Feature | EW1020 (Standard) | EW1020-QC (QuickCycle) |
|---|---|---|
| Speed of Rise | 41 seconds | 24 seconds |
| Motor | 2HP, 208V-230V, 60Hz, 1Ph | 3HP, 208V-230V, 60Hz, 1Ph |
| Lifting Capacity | 10,000 lbs | 10,000 lbs |
| Drive-Through Clearance | 88" | 88" |
| Arms | 3-stage front / 3-stage rear | 3-stage front / 3-stage rear |
| Certifications | ALI/ETL | ALI/ETL |
The EW10CK-BMC-QC completion kit is based on the EW1020-QC configuration, giving you the faster 3HP motor and 24-second rise time along with bench-mount controls. If cycle speed is less of a priority, the standard EW1020 configuration uses a 2HP motor with a 41-second rise time.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does the EW10CK-BMC-QC completion kit include versus the full lift system?
The completion kit provides the above-ground components needed to finish an EW10 inground lift installation, including the superstructure, 3-stage arm assemblies, bench-mount controls, and the 3HP QuickCycle power unit. The underground cassette and cylinder assembly are separate. Call to confirm exact included components for your specific order.
What concrete and electrical requirements does this completion kit need?
The EW10 platform requires a single concrete pour for the cassette, which is simpler than older three-pour designs. Electrical requirements are 208V-230V single-phase power at 60Hz for the 3HP QuickCycle motor. You'll also need shop air between 90 and 120 psi for operation.
How fast does the QuickCycle version raise a vehicle?
The QuickCycle upgrade brings rise time down to 24 seconds, compared to 41 seconds on the standard EW1020 without QuickCycle. This is achieved through a larger 3HP motor versus the standard 2HP unit, making a noticeable difference in high-volume bays running back-to-back services.
Can this lift handle electric vehicles and EV battery service?
Yes. The EW10's 88-inch drive-through clearance is specifically wide enough to lower EV battery packs. The optional EV Kit (Part #10900) adds low-profile EV-ready foot pads, universal foot pads, 3-inch and 6-inch adapters, and storage racks for safe EV lifting across multiple vehicle platforms.
What's the difference between bench-mount controls and standard controls?
Bench-mount controls (BMC) integrate directly into your workbench, operated by button or lever. This eliminates a standalone control pedestal from the bay floor, giving you a cleaner workspace and more ergonomic access. The controls mount flush within the bench surface for easier reach during operation.
Is the Challenger EW10 ALI/ETL certified?
Yes. Both the standard EW1020 and the EW1020-QC (which the EW10CK-BMC-QC completion kit is based on) carry full ALI/ETL certification. This means the lift meets the Automotive Lift Institute's safety standards, which is typically required for insurance compliance and shop inspections.
What colors are available for the superstructure?
The EW10 superstructure is available in Black, Red, or Blue. Confirm your preferred color when placing your order so the correct panels ship with your completion kit. Color selection does not affect specifications or performance.
How is this completion kit shipped and what do I need for unloading?
The kit ships via flatbed freight truck. You'll receive a tracking number and schedule a delivery appointment with the carrier. A forklift or equivalent equipment is required for unloading, as standard delivery does not include unloading service. Contact us before ordering if you need liftgate or residential delivery options.
What warranty coverage comes with the EW10 completion kit?
Challenger provides a limited warranty to the original purchaser. For inground lifts in the 10K-15K range, typical coverage is 1-year labor, 2-year parts, and 5-year structural. The warranty is non-transferable and requires registration. Claims need the lift's serial number and must go through an authorized service representative.
What arm reach and screw pad range does this lift offer?
The 3-stage arms provide a reach of 20 to 42 inches, and the double-telescoping screw pads adjust from 4 inches to 6.125 inches in height. This range covers pick-up points on everything from compact EVs to wide-body luxury vehicles and full-size trucks with a 10,000 lb total lifting capacity.
