It’s also fully loaded with accessories you’d normally pay extra for. This model comes standard with drip trays, a jack tray, and a poly caster kit. Letting you keep your workspace clean, store tools, and even roll the lift when needed.

Benefits of the Tuxedo FP9K‑DX‑XLT 4‑Post Lift
Key Features of the Tuxedo FP9K‑DX‑XLT 9,000 lb 4‑Post Lift You'll Love:
• 9,000 lb Capacity: Perfect for long‑bed trucks, SUVs, and extended sedans. 9,000 lb capacity at the extended-runway tier covers full-size and dually pickups that won't fit standard 4-posts.
• Extended 85″ Lifting Height: Provides 81″ of clearance underneath for stacking or undercarriage work. Extra lift height gives techs full standing clearance under most vehicles for service work, not just storage clearance.
• Single‑Point Manual Lock Release: Unlocks all four posts simultaneously with one handle, paired with 11 locking positions. Single-handle release saves real time per cycle and reduces the door-banging that costs minutes across a busy day.
• Slack Cable Safety System: Locks the lift in place if cable tension is lost, adding a redundant layer of protection. The slack-cable safety is the redundant backup that distinguishes commercial-grade lifts from consumer-tier equipment.
• Accessory‑Packed Platform: Comes standard with drip trays, jack tray, and poly caster kit. Most competing lifts at this capacity charge $300-500 extra for the accessories that ship standard with the FP9K-DX-XLT.
• Home & Commercial Ready: Runs on 115V / 20 Amp power and fits most full‑size residential garages. Standard 115V outlet means no electrician on the install. Plug into the existing residential garage circuit and start using.

Tuxedo FP9K-DX-XLT Frequently Asked Questions
Will my truck fit on the FP9K-DX-XLT?
This is the truck-friendly storage lift in the line: 9,000 lb capacity, 188.5" runways, 20"-wide treads, and a 99" drive-thru width. Crew cabs, long-wheelbase SUVs, and full-size vans load without tiptoeing. Max lifting height is 85" for serious clearance underneath.
Does the FP9K-DX-XLT run on a normal home outlet?
Yes -- 115V, 20 amp, single phase. No 220V circuit needed, which keeps installation simple for home garages and storage buildings.
Can I park a car underneath a stored vehicle?
Yes -- with 81" of clearance under the runways at full rise, even SUVs fit below a stored vehicle. The columns stand 97", so plan on at least 103" of ceiling and measure both vehicles stacked before ordering.
Which Tuxedo 4-post is right for me?
This FP9K-DX-XLT is the 9,000 lb wide-body flagship of the storage line. The FP8K-DX-XLT covers 8,000 lbs with similar length for less; the FP8K-DX is the standard-length value pick; and the FP12K-K steps up to 12,000 lb commercial duty.
Can I do wheels-free service on it?
Yes -- pair it with the RJ-45 4,500 lb rolling bridge jack, the matching accessory for this lift. It rides the runways and picks the vehicle up by the frame so wheels hang free for brakes, tires, and suspension work.
Do I need to bolt it to the floor?
No -- 4-post storage lifts are free-standing on a slab at least 4" thick at 3,000 PSI. Anchoring is optional; skip it if you plan to use the included caster kit to reposition the lift.
Is the Tuxedo FP9K-DX-XLT worth it?
Nine thousand pounds of capacity, drip trays, jack tray, and casters included, 115V operation, and a 5-year structural warranty -- it's the deluxe storage package without the premium-brand markup.
