The Tuxedo TP9KACX is the next generation of professional two post lifts, delivering 9,000 lbs. of lifting capacity in a redesigned asymmetric clear floor configuration that offers exceptional vehicle access and workspace efficiency. Engineered with single piece column construction for superior rigidity and safety, this lift combines rugged durability with innovative features that make it one of the best values in the professional two post lift category. Whether you're running a busy independent shop or outfitting a serious home garage, the TP9KACX delivers commercial-grade performance at a price point that makes sense.
The NEW 9K "X" Series lifts have been completely redesigned with the professional technician in mind. The TP9KACX clear floor model features a host of standard upgrades including internal hose routing with integrated hose guards, an overhead shut-off bar with kill switch for enhanced safety, reduced overall width with front-side power unit mounting for easier bay installation, low profile drop-in adjustable swivel pads with 1-1/2" height adjustment, a full set of stackable drop-in height adapters, and protective rubber door guards to prevent accidental vehicle damage. This lift is built for daily professional use with high quality construction, a dependable chain drive system, and a durable powder coat finish that stands up to years of hard work.
Low Profile Drop-In Swivel Pads
The TP9KACX includes innovative low profile swivel pads that drop into the lift arms and offer 1-1/2" of adjustable height. This allows precise positioning on uneven vehicle frames and provides the versatility to safely lift everything from low-slung sports cars to lifted trucks. The swivel action ensures proper contact with vehicle lift points while the minimum pad height of just 4 inches accommodates even the lowest ground clearance vehicles.
Stackable Drop-In Height Adapters
Every TP9KACX includes a complete set of 4 each stackable 1-3/8" and 4" height adapters at no additional charge. These drop-in adapters quickly extend your lift arms to reach higher frame rails, pinch welds, and factory lift points on trucks and SUVs. Stack them as needed for the perfect height combination, then store them conveniently when not in use. This is a significant value add that expands your lift's versatility without purchasing expensive accessory kits.
Compact Front-Side Power Unit Mounting
The redesigned TP9KACX features a front-side mounted power unit that reduces the lift's overall width to just 138 inches (including power unit). This space-efficient design makes installation easier in tighter bays while still maintaining a generous 113.6" width between columns for vehicle clearance. The result is a lift that fits where others won't, without sacrificing capacity or stability.
Internal Hose Routing with Integrated Guards
Unlike lifts with exposed hydraulic hoses that are vulnerable to damage, the TP9KACX routes all hydraulic lines inside the columns with integrated hose guards protecting connection points. This professional design detail prevents accidental hose damage from tools, parts, or vehicle contact, reducing maintenance costs and eliminating dangerous hydraulic failures. It also creates a cleaner, more professional appearance in your shop.
Rubber Door Guards
Protect your customers' vehicles with factory-installed rubber door guards that prevent accidental door-to-column contact. These durable rubber bumpers absorb impact if a door swings open during service, preventing costly paint damage and customer complaints. It's a small detail that demonstrates the thoughtful engineering throughout the TP9KACX design.
Optional Spin-Up Cradle Adapters
Expand the versatility of your TP9KACX with the optional TP9KX-SPNCA set of 4 spin-up cradle adapters. These professional-grade adapters allow you to safely lift vehicles by their frame rails and provide additional contact options for specialized service work. The spin-up design allows quick height adjustment and secure locking at any position along the arm.
