How Does MaxJax Work?
MaxJax combines the undercar access and lifting capability of a two-post lift with a removable design built for garages and shops where space is limited. During use, each column securely bolts to floor anchors installed in the concrete. When you’re finished, simply unbolt the columns, roll them out of the way and reclaim your floor space.
Find the Right Spot for Your MaxJax
Proper installation starts with the right location. Learn what to consider before installing your floor anchors, including available space, ceiling height, concrete requirements and vehicle positioning.
1. Install Anchor Bolts
MaxJax concrete anchors are internally threaded to provide flush-mount installation in your concrete floor and remain there permanently.
2. Roll Columns Into Position
Roll MaxJax columns over the recessed anchors then secure each column to the floor using the five 5/8" x 2" high-yield hex bolts.
3. Attach Adjustable Lift Arms
Attach the adjustable lift arms to the MaxJax columns and install the drop-in pivot pins.
4. Position Mobile Power-Unit Cart
Position the MaxJax's mobile power-unit cart at the front or rear of the vehicle.
5. Connect Hydraulic Hoses
Attach the quick-connect/disconnect hydraulic couplers to the back of each column.

MaxJax delivers the functionality of a two-post car lift in a removable, space-saving design.
