Atlas Extra Tall Portable 4-Post Lift - 8,000 lb. Capacity | PRO8000EXT
Extra Height, Compact Length. The Atlas PRO8000EXT 4 Post Lift Stores SUVs Without Eating Up Floor Space
Buying a 4 post car lift can be overwhelming when you’re a car enthusiast or hobbyist working in a limited garage space. You might find lifts that go high enough but also stretch too far lengthwise, eating up valuable room. Or maybe you’re struggling to find something that can store your SUV underneath another vehicle without committing to a commercial-grade setup. That’s where the Atlas PRO8000EXT Lift steps in. Extra-tall portable 4-post lifts solve a specific problem: garages with higher-than-standard ceilings or owners stacking taller vehicles. Atlas's PRO8000EXT puts both extra height AND portability into one lift.
This four post car lift gives you all the vertical clearance of a larger model without the added bulk. With 79" of clearance underneath the runways, it’s ideal for storing larger vehicles like pickup trucks or SUVs below and standard cars above. And the extra height costs you nothing on the floor: at 206.75" long with the approach ramp it takes exactly the same bay as the standard PRO8000, with 15 inches more column. Perfect for residential garages with height but limited floor space. 8,000 lb capacity covers full-size sedans, SUVs, and most light trucks. The extra-tall column setting clears taller vehicles for stacking, while the portable design lets you reposition the lift between bays.
You’re also getting reliability and convenience with every raise. Built with a single-point lock release system, diamond-plated runways, and a double-lock safety system, this Atlas 4 post lift blends ease of use with peace of mind. Plus, it runs on 110V off a dedicated 30 amp circuit, so there is no 220V service to install. One thing to check before you buy: this lift calls for a minimum 6" slab at 3,000 PSI, which is more slab than the standard PRO8000 and the longer PRO8000EXT-L ask for. If you are cross-shopping the three, do not assume the concrete spec carries across the family. Whether you're restoring a classic or trying to free up garage space, this lift delivers commercial feel without commercial hassle. For owners with taller residential ceilings or shops needing flexible bay layouts, the PRO8000EXT brings height flexibility and portability into one purchase.

Benefits of the Atlas PRO8000EXT Vehicle Lift
Key Features of the Atlas PRO8000EXT Extra Tall Portable 8000lb Four-Post Vehicle Lift You'll Love:
• Extra Tall Design for SUV Storage: With 84.25" lifting height and 79" of clearance below, this lift is ideal for stacking cars or tucking your truck underneath. It gives you commercial-style vertical storage without needing commercial square footage.
• Freestanding and Portable: Thanks to the included caster kit with polyurethane wheels, the PRO8000EXT is easy to roll between garage bays or even outside. No anchors needed. The floor still matters though: the slab under it has to be at least 6" of 3,000 PSI concrete, portable or not.
• Diamond-Plated Runways: The runways feature a heavy-duty, slip-resistant surface to help your tires grip during approach and exit. It’s a small touch that adds a big boost in safety and long-term durability.
• Single-Point Lock Release System: This mechanism lets you control all four corners with one lever. Making the lift smooth and fast to operate without the hassle of individual lock releases.
• Double Lock Safety System: For added peace of mind, the lift includes a secondary safety lock that automatically engages in case the primary one fails. It’s built-in redundancy that protects both your vehicles and your investment.
• Complete Lift Accessory Kit: It comes with everything you need: steel jack tray, 4 plastic drip trays, steel approach ramps, 4 wheel stops, and 2 rubber chocks. No upsells or guesswork. Just a complete setup right out of the box.

*Concrete must meet the manufacturer's minimum requirements as specified above. This model calls for a minimum 6" slab at 3,000 PSI. That is deeper than the standard PRO8000 and the PRO8000EXT-L require, so if you are comparing the three do not carry one model's concrete figure over to another. A typical residential garage slab is poured at 4", so measure yours before ordering rather than assuming it qualifies. 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: the runways top out at 84.25", so your ceiling needs 84.25" plus the height of the vehicle on top. Measure your specific vehicles before ordering. Without the power unit the lift is 104.5" wide.
