Daytona LTPO15 15,000 lb Two Post Overhead Lift, Height Extension Kit Included
Take the Jobs a 10,000 lb Lift Turns Away with the Daytona LTPO15 15,000 lb Two Post Overhead Lift
A 10,000 lb two post lift covers most of what rolls into a general repair bay, and then a dually pickup, a loaded box truck, or a shuttle bus shows up and the job goes down the road. Fleet accounts are where the steady money is, and fleet vehicles are exactly the ones that sit above 10,000 lbs once you count the upfit, the tool boxes, and whatever is still in the bed. Turning that work away once is annoying. Turning it away every week is a business decision you did not mean to make.
The Daytona LTPO15 is built for it. 15,000 lbs of capacity, held with the arms fully extended, on dual direct drive hydraulic cylinders with three-stage front and rear arms reaching from 35.4" to 70.8". That arm range is the part that matters on long wheelbase trucks, where a shorter arm set simply cannot find the pickup points. Automatic safety locks with single-point release and a height limit switch handle the safety side, and the overhead cable routing keeps the floor between the columns completely clear.
The height extension kit ships with this lift as standard, not as an upsell. Fitted, the LTPO15 stands 176.8" to the top of the overhead bar, against 157" without it, so the kit adds 19.8". Plan on a 15'-3" ceiling. It runs on 240V single phase at 3 HP and 13 amps, reaches full height in about 60 seconds, and ships with truck adapters, screw-up pads, and full rubber door guards in the crate.
Not sure whether you need 15,000 lbs? Call a Pitstop Pro lift specialist with the heaviest vehicle you service and your ceiling height and we will tell you straight. If 10,000 lbs covers your work, the ALI certified Daytona BR10-2OH-33 is the lighter, shorter, less expensive answer. Or compare every 2 post car lift we carry and the full Daytona lineup.

Benefits of the Daytona LTPO15
Key Features of the Daytona LTPO15 15k Two Post Lift
• 15,000 lb lifting capacity: Rated capacity is maintained with the arms fully extended, which is what makes it usable on long wheelbase commercial vehicles rather than only on compact loads. Lifting range runs from a 3.9" minimum pad height up to 74.8".
• Dual direct drive hydraulic cylinders: One cylinder per column drives its carriage directly, with no chain in the load path to stretch or tension. High polymer polyethylene wear-resistant slide blocks carry the carriage inside the column.
• Three-stage front and rear arms: All four arms telescope from 35.4" to 70.8" with a 23.6" sweep width and 13.5" of inner arm clearance. Asymmetric and symmetric setups are both available from the same arm set.
• Automatic safety locks with single-point release: Locks engage automatically through the travel and release from one handle. An overhead height limit switch cuts the lift before the vehicle roof reaches the bar, and full rubber door guards protect the vehicle at the columns.
• Height extension kit included standard: Fitted, the lift stands 176.8" to the top of the overhead bar. Daytona's blueprint records a 157" standard height without the kit, so the kit adds 19.8". If your ceiling cannot take the full configuration, call us before ordering rather than assuming.
• Ships complete: Truck adapters, screw-up pads, and full rubber door guards are in the crate along with the height kit. Matte powder coat finish, indoor rated for 41 to 104 degrees F.

*This lift requires a minimum of 8" of 3,000 PSI concrete, level within 3/8" across the installation area, with no anchor placed within 6" of a crack, edge, or expansion joint. Many residential garage slabs are poured at 4" and will not qualify. Installing on inadequate concrete may result in serious injury or death. It is the customer's responsibility to verify concrete thickness and strength prior to purchase and installation.

Daytona LTPO15 Frequently Asked Questions
How much ceiling height do I really need?
This is the question to settle before anything else. With the included height extension kit fitted, the LTPO15 stands 176.8" to the top of the overhead bar, so plan on a 15'-3" ceiling measured to the lowest obstruction, not the peak. Daytona's blueprint records a 157" standard height without the kit, so the kit accounts for 19.8" of that. Without it the ceiling requirement would come down to roughly 13'-6", but the kit ships as part of this lift and is used in assembly. If your bay cannot take the full 176.8", call us before you order.
Do I actually need 15,000 lbs?
If your heaviest regular vehicle is a one-ton single-rear-wheel pickup, no. A 10,000 lb lift like the Daytona BR10-2OH-33 covers that comfortably, costs less, and needs three feet less ceiling. You want the LTPO15 when dual rear wheel trucks, box trucks, shuttle buses, ambulances, or loaded service bodies are regular work, or when a fleet contract specifies a 15,000 lb rating.
Is the height extension kit really included?
Yes. On the rest of Daytona's two post overhead range the kit is a separate purchase running a few hundred dollars. On the LTPO15 it ships in its own crate with the lift at no extra charge, and the dimensions on this page reflect it fitted.
How is this different from the BR10-2OH-33?
Capacity, reach, and footprint. The BR10-2OH-33 is 10,000 lbs, ALI certified, adjusts across three width settings, and stands 144.2". The LTPO15 is 15,000 lbs with three-stage arms front and rear reaching 70.8", a fixed 163.0" floor width, and 176.8" of height with its kit. The BR10 is the certified general repair lift. The LTPO15 is the heavy commercial one. If ALI certification is a contract requirement for you, that points to the BR10.
What concrete does it need?
Plan on a minimum of 8" of concrete at 3,000 PSI compressive strength, cured, level within 3/8" across the installation area, with no anchor placed within 6" of a crack, edge, or expansion joint. Eight inches is deeper than many residential garage slabs, which are commonly poured at 4", so measure before you order rather than after the freight arrives. If your slab does not meet that, a pad can be poured to accommodate the lift. Check with your local building inspector about permits before installation. Verifying concrete is the customer's responsibility, and installing on an inadequate slab is genuinely dangerous.
Do I need three phase power for a 15,000 lb lift?
No, and that is worth noting at this capacity. The LTPO15 runs on 240V single phase, 3 HP, 13 amps, 60Hz on a dedicated circuit. No rotary phase converter and no utility upgrade. Have a licensed electrician confirm the circuit and breaker sizing before the installer arrives.
How does delivery work?
The LTPO15 ships as freight in three pieces: the lift at 155" x 25" x 40" and 2,700 lbs, the power unit at 31" x 11" x 12" and 60 lbs, and the height kit at 26" x 12" x 18" and 200 lbs. Curbside freight delivery and warehouse pickup are both available. A lift specialist can quote the options for your ZIP and tell you what equipment you will want on site, because a 155" crate at 2,700 lbs is not a two-person unload.
What is the warranty?
Five years structural, two years on power units, cylinders, and seal kits, and one year on all other defective parts. Daytona has served shops in the United States and Canada since 1999 and stocks parts in regional warehouses, so support does not depend on a container arriving from overseas.
