Forward Lift

Forward Lift F12 Two Post Lift 12,000 lbs. Capacity 

Forward's F12 two post lift is gold certified with a 12,000 pound capacity for raising most passenger cars, trucks and vans. With two heavy-duty push hydraulic cylinders designed to increase lift performance and minimize down-time. Cylinders are located in each column concealed within the carriage itself. Durable powder coat finish provides exceptional protection from the wears a shop will see over the years. Forwards spring operated arm restraints are just one feature that keep these heavy duty lift arms constantly performing at their peak.

The F12 is a commercial grade car lift and should not be confused with any other cheap two post vehicle lifts. This is a Forward lift so it has been engineered to preform and built to last!

The F12 lift is certified by ALI (Automotive Lift Institute) to meet American National Standard.

Engineering Excellence. Forward's U.S. engineers have over 29 years of combined experience designing automotive lifts for service and repair shops. Forward's philosophy is to own our designs rather than use someone else's off the shelf product.

Product Integrity. 21st century design tools allow us to create, control and validate our designs to ensure maximum performance. Forward lifts are thoroughly tested to meet quality and durability standards. All product families are proof load tested to 1-1/2 times rated capacity and rigorously cycle tested.
