AMGO 4-Post Alignment Lift – 12,000 lb Capacity | PRO-12A
12K Alignment-Ready Power: AMGO PRO-12A 12,000 lb 4-Post Alignment Lift
Finding a reliable 4 post lift that handles both heavy-duty vehicles and precise wheel alignment work can be a challenge. Many lifts lack the strength for larger vehicles or the features needed for efficient alignment service. The AMGO PRO-12A solves both with a 12,000 lb capacity, integrated slip plates, adjustable turnplate pockets, and a robust safety system. Making it a versatile choice for busy shops and serious home garages. Whether you’re servicing sedans, SUVs, or light trucks, this lift keeps up with high-volume, professional workloads. And once you start filtering for 4-post lifts that actually accommodate alignment work (turn plates, slip plates, drop-out sections), the field thins quickly. Most 4-post lifts skip alignment-ready features because they add cost.
This 12000 lb 4 post lift is designed with the operator in mind. An air-released safety lock system speeds reliable engagement, while the double-safety lock system ensures every lift is secure. Non-skid diamond platforms give solid traction, and the adjustable platform width lets you accommodate a wide range of vehicles. From tire rotations to full wheel alignments, this lift delivers precision and stability every time. Built-in turn plate pockets and slip plates handle front-end and four-wheel alignment without dedicated rack equipment. The 12,000 lb structural rating covers crew cabs, lifted trucks, and most light commercial vehicles.
Built with AMGO’s high-quality hydraulics and aircraft-grade cables, the PRO-12A offers smooth, controlled lifting and lowering. Durable construction and easy-to-use controls reduce downtime and increase efficiency. Whether you run an auto repair shop, tire center, or fleet facility, the PRO-12A balances power, precision, and reliability for long-term, profitable operation. For shops bridging alignment work with general 4-post service, the PRO-12A delivers both jobs in one bay without the equipment-swap overhead.

Benefits of the AMGO PRO-12A Alignment 4-Post Lift
Key Features of the AMGO PRO-12A 4-Post Lift You'll Love:
• Integrated Alignment Hardware: Rear slip plates and front turnplate pockets are machined into the runways — drop in the 40101 turn plate set and the bay is alignment-ready. No bolt-on retrofits.
• Wide Alignment Envelope: Four-wheel alignments cover wheelbases from 78-3/4" to 157-1/2", two-wheel up to 163-3/8" — compacts through 1-ton trucks on one rack.
• Adjustable Runway Spacing: Runways slide from 39-3/8" to 51-3/16" apart to match different track widths, and the 98-3/8" drive-through takes wide commercial bodies.
• 76" Rise With Standing Access: The alignment-spec runways rise to 76" with 68" of clearance underneath — full standing room for suspension and steering work.
• Commercial Drive System: A 2.0 HP, 220V single-phase power unit delivers a 63-second rise, with dual mechanical safety locks and skid-proof platforms rated for daily cycling.
• Low-Profile Bay Fit: Columns stand just 86", so the PRO-12A installs under 7'8" ceilings — alignment capability without a high-bay building.

AMGO PRO-12A Frequently Asked Questions
What makes the PRO-12A an alignment lift?
Integrated rear slip plates and front turnplate pockets machined into the runways. Add the 40101 turn plate set (with adjustment blocks to fill the pockets when they're out) and you have a working alignment bay. Four-wheel alignments cover 78-3/4" to 157-1/2" wheelbases; two-wheel up to 163-3/8".
What vehicles can it handle?
A 12,000 lb 4 post car lift for everything from compacts to 1-ton trucks. Runways adjust from 39-3/8" to 51-3/16" apart, the 98-3/8" drive-thru takes wide bodies, and 68" of under-runway clearance gives standing access.
Which AMGO alignment 4-post is right for me?
This PRO-12A is the standard alignment platform. The PRO-12ASX lifts faster (45 s) with a wider 104" drive-thru; the PRO-14A steps up to 14,000 lbs for heavier fleets. No alignments in your mix? The plain PRO-12 costs less.
Can I do wheels-free service on it?
Yes -- pair it with the manual RJ-6H or air-powered RJ-6A 6,000 lb rolling jack -- that's how alignment techs lift axles for caster/camber adjustments. The airline kit plumbs air along the runway.
What about long-wheelbase vehicles?
AMGO's 26" platform extension kit bolts on for extended vans and trucks. As shipped, the lift is 236-11/16" long overall and needs only 92" (7'8") of ceiling.
Do I need to bolt it to the floor?
4-posts are free-standing on concrete at least 4" thick at 3,000 PSI, but for an alignment lift a flat, properly cured slab matters doubly -- levelness affects readings. Anchor per the manual for commercial use.
Is the AMGO PRO-12A worth it?
A working alignment rack at this price with 5-year structure / 3-year hydraulics / 2-year electrical coverage is hard to beat. See the Reviews tab above for buyer feedback, and our 2-Post vs 4-Post guide if you're still choosing a style.
