Challenger EW12LS-2-QC Wide Inground Lift 12000 lb QC

It's the base above-ground component package that finishes an EW12 wide inground lift installation. This kit includes the standard hydraulic power unit and column-mounted controls, all factory-matched to the EW12 platform. Your superstructure and pre-kit need to be installed before this kit goes in. The completed system delivers 12,000 lb of lifting capacity with 88 inches of drive-through clearance.

The EW12CK is the base configuration with standard column-mounted controls and standard hydraulic operation at a 63-second rise time. The QC version adds QuickCycle for faster lift cycles. The BMC version swaps to bench-mounted controls. The BMC-QC combines both upgrades. All four kits complete the same 12,000 lb EW12 platform with identical capacity and clearance specs.

Column-mounted controls integrate the operator panel directly into the lift structure. You operate the lift from a panel on the lift column itself, keeping everything in one location without needing a separate workstation or bench. It's the standard control configuration and the most straightforward setup for shops that don't need a remote control station.

Yes. The completion kit is the final stage of an EW12 installation. Your inground superstructure and pre-kit must be installed and concrete work completed before this kit can be connected. If you're unsure what stage your build is at, call (855) 498-2147 and we'll help you figure out exactly what you still need.

The system runs on 208-230V, 60 Hz, single-phase power with a dedicated circuit for the 2 HP motor. A licensed electrician needs to handle the wiring and verify the supply meets code before the lift goes into service. You'll also need 90 to 120 psi compressed air for the automatic safety locks.

Yes. The completed EW12 holds both ALI and ETL certification, confirming third-party verification of the lift's 12,000 lb capacity, structural integrity, and mechanical safety features. These certifications are recognized by insurance carriers, facility managers, and franchise dealership compliance programs.

That's one of its primary design strengths. The 88-inch drive-through clearance and 3-stage arm geometry allow battery pack access and lowering without obstruction. Double-telescoping screw pads with a 4" to 6.125" height range provide precise lift point positioning on EV platforms for high-voltage battery and drivetrain service.

It ships via flatbed freight truck. You'll need a forklift or similar equipment for unloading since lift gate service isn't available. Deliveries arrive on a 48-foot semi, so confirm your site has adequate truck access. If you don't have unloading equipment on-site, the shipment can route to a local freight terminal for pickup.

Challenger's limited warranty covers repair or replacement of defective parts for the original owner, including reasonable labor and transportation costs. The lift must be installed, used, and maintained per Challenger's specifications. Coverage excludes consumable items, normal wear, and damage from misuse or unauthorized repairs. Registration may be required after purchase.

The completion kit you choose determines your control type and hydraulic configuration from the start. If you think you might want faster cycle times or a bench-mounted control station, it's easier to order the right kit upfront than to retrofit later. Call (855) 498-2147 and our team will help you decide which configuration makes sense before you commit.
