AMGO 10,000 lb 2-Post Lift - Extra Tall | OHX-10H
Why the AMGO OHX-10H 2 Post Lift Is the Perfect Fit for Taller Bays
Buying a lift can feel risky when you are worried about ceiling height, door swing, and whether the arms will actually reach your lift points. If you run a busy shop, you also need fast rise times, predictable safety locks, and real under-car clearance for tall vans and trucks. The AMGO OHX-10H answers those pain points with extra-tall columns, two factory height settings, and a clear-floor design that keeps your bay open. With a 10,000 lb capacity, 3 3/4" minimum pad height, and roughly 81" to 83 5/8" of lifting height with adapters, it is built for work. If you are searching for a dependable 2 Post Lift, this model is a smart, future-proof pick for commercial bays. Above 9,000 lbs the field thins quickly, and most 10K overhead lifts come with a single fixed column height. If your bay has a 13 to 15 foot ceiling and you mostly work on lifted trucks or full-size SUVs, the standard 9-10 foot column heights leave you with vehicles bumping the lift's overhead beam.
This OHX-10H gives you room to breathe under the vehicle without stretching your building limits. Overall height is selectable at 157" or 167 3/16", and you can widen the stance to increase the drive-thru clearance from 99 13/16" up to 105 11/16" with the width kit. The direct-drive hydraulic system keeps lifts smooth and maintenance simple, while single-point manual lock release saves steps. UHMW polyethylene sliders and extra-long carriages keep motion tight and controlled over years of use. Pair that with automatic arm restraints and an overhead shut-off and you get confidence on every cycle. Two factory-set column heights (157" or 167-3/16") let you size the lift to your actual ceiling, plus an optional wide-kit upgrade for door-clearance flexibility. The 2.0 HP power unit delivers consistent cycle times across the full 10K capacity.
Set-up is straightforward as long as you plan ahead. You will need 220V single-phase power with proper grounding, a level 4" slab at 3,000 psi, and a ceiling of at least 157" for the low column setting. Width between columns ranges from 112 19/32" to 118 1/2", so mirrors and door clearance are easy to plan around. As part of the AMGO 2 post lifts lineup, the OHX-10H ships with stackable pad adapters, toe guards, and tool trays, and you can add 6" height adapters or extension kits as your vehicle mix evolves. For shops working on lifted trucks, full-size SUVs, or anywhere ceiling height varies bay-to-bay, the OHX-10H is one of the rare 10K lifts with built-in height flexibility instead of forcing a permanent decision at install.

Benefits of the AMGO OHX-10H Two Post Lift
Key Features of the AMGO OHX-10H 2-Post Lift You'll Love:
• Direct-Drive Dual Hydraulic Cylinders: AMGO uses dual direct-drive cylinders to reduce the number of wear parts compared to chain or screw systems. The result is smoother, more consistent lifting with less maintenance over time. Your techs get predictable cycles and you get lower lifetime cost.
• Super-Asymmetric, Multi-Stage Arms: Load vehicles symmetrically or asymmetrically to balance door clearance and reach. Multi-stage arms make it easier to hit lift points on everything from sedans to short-bed trucks. This versatility is what most buyers want in a 10000 lb 2 post lift.
• Single-Point Manual Lock Release: Unlock both columns from one side to speed up lowers and reduce walking around the bay. It is a small feature that saves seconds on every job, which adds up across a full day. Fewer steps also means a safer, more controlled workflow.
• Width and Height Expansion Options: Add width-extension or height-extension kits if your vehicle mix changes or you move spaces. Increasing drive-thru to 105 11/16" can make all the difference for mirror clearance on wider trucks. Optional 6" height adapters help you fine-tune underbody access on taller frames.

*Concrete must meet the manufacturer's minimum requirements as specified above. Installing this lift 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. Stacking taller vehicles vertically may require additional ceiling height. Measure your specific vehicles before ordering. Note: 2-post overhead lifts inherently require tall ceilings. Verify your overhead clearance before ordering.
