BendPak Introduces MaxJax MAX7 Portable Two-Post Lift


BendPak Inc. introduced the MaxJax MAX7 portable two-post lift at the SEMA show. The MAX7 rises 3 inches higher than earlier models, providing more under-vehicle clearance and additional room to work. The company said it’s also the first MaxJax model to integrate BendPak’s Automatic Swing Arm Restraint System (ASARS). The system helps prevent unintended swing arm movement during vehicle lifting, lowering and service.
Attendees can see the lift at BendPak’s outdoor interactive display in the Silver Lot, Booth 80043. BendPak also is hosting hands-on equipment demonstrations inside the Las Vegas Convention Center’s Upper South Hall, Booth 36129.
The SEMA Show runs Nov. 3-6 at the Las Vegas Convention Center. The show, previously open only to trade attendees, opens to the public Friday, Nov. 6.
“Garage space is premium real estate, whether you’re running a busy shop or wrenching at home,” said Sean Price, BendPak director of quality control and product development. “The MAX7 stands out for its versatility. It delivers commercial-grade lifting power for enthusiasts without permanently sacrificing parking space, while enabling professional shops to quickly increase service capacity during peak hours. The MaxJax MAX7 unlocks maximum utility without requiring a permanent footprint.”
BendPak MAX7 Offers More Working Room
The MaxJax MAX7 offers a maximum lifting height of 50.25 inches, providing additional under-vehicle clearance while maintaining a compact profile. Its design accommodates spaces with low ceilings.
Its open design provides direct access to brakes, suspension, exhaust and other undercar components for repair and maintenance tasks. A 7,000-pound rated load capacity enables the MAX7 to lift a wide range of cars, trucks and SUVs.
New Swing Arm Restraint System
The MAX7 is the first MaxJax lift to incorporate BendPak’s patent-pending ASARS. The system features a 360-degree locking interface with 10 times the holding force of traditional swing arm restraint mechanisms. It secures the lift arms in position under the vehicle.
The MAX7 also features seven safety locking positions and an upgraded lock release.
Portable and Flexible Design
BendPak said that MaxJax is the original, patented portable two-post lift. It combines the undercar access and lifting capability of a two-post lift with removable columns and a power unit. During use, operators securely bolt each column to floor anchors permanently recessed in the concrete floor. The anchors provide a stable foundation.
After completing the job, operators can unbolt the columns and roll them away, leaving the floor clear.
Four MAX7 Packages Available
BendPak offers four MAX7 packages to accommodate different equipment and accessory needs:
- Standard Package: Includes the MAX7 lift assembly, power unit with tow cart, standard anchor bolt kit, round lift pads and medium adapters.
- Deluxe Package: Adds a rolling work seat and portable oil drain.
- Supreme Package: Includes everything in the Deluxe Package, plus frame cradle pads and tall adapters.
- Ultimate Package: Replaces the Supreme Package’s standard rolling work seat with the MaxJax Ergonomic Height-Adjustable Creeper Seat.
An optional MaxJax Motorcycle and ATV Adapter Kit adds powersports service capability to the MAX7 car lift.
