Buying a lift can feel risky when you are not sure it will fit your bay, reach your lift points, or stand up to daily use. Ceiling height and door swing are common worries, along with concrete requirements and electrical specs that are easy to miss. The AMGO OH-9 tackles those pain points with a clear-floor design, dual direct-drive cylinders, and Super-Asymmetric arms that let you load symmetrically or asymmetrically for better door clearance. With a 9,000 lb capacity, a 3-3/4 inch minimum pad height, and a 99-1/2 inch drive-thru, it is built for real shops that service sedans, SUVs, and light trucks. If you need a dependable 2 Post Lift that fits modest bays without compromises, this model checks the boxes.
Power, speed, and safety all matter when your lifts run all day. The OH-9 raises in about 57 seconds and uses a single-point manual lock release so you can unlock both columns from one side. An overhead shut-off bar helps protect roofs and antennas, while automatic arm restraints and UHMW polyethylene sliders keep motion smooth and predictable. The overall height can be set at 142-1/2 inches or 150-1/2 inches to match your building, and the 112-3/16 inches between columns gives generous door swing. For teams pricing a 2 Post Lift upgrade, these details translate into faster setups and fewer headaches.
Fitment is straightforward with clear ceiling rules. If your ceiling is over 151-1/2 inches, either height setting works; between 143-3/4 and 151-1/2 inches, use the low setting; below 143-3/4 inches, choose a different model. Concrete needs to be at least 4 inches thick at 3,000 psi, fully cured, level, and free of cracks or rebar at anchor points. The 2.0 HP single-phase power unit must be wired by a licensed electrician on a properly grounded circuit per the manual. Optional 6 inch extension adapters, a height extension kit to about 174-7/16 inches, width extensions, and saddle adapters round out the package so this 9000 lb 2 post lift grows with your shop. Many buyers search for a “super symmetric car lift” and land here, and they appreciate that AMGO’s Super-Asymmetric arms deliver the flexibility they were actually after.
