Super-Symmetric Arms: What Are They?
When loading a vehicle onto a 2 post lift, it’s essential to position it between the posts in a way that allows the doors to open freely once the vehicle is off the ground. This is where super-symmetric arms come into play. These innovative arms typically feature a 2-stage rear arm paired with a 3-stage front arm, offering the flexibility to be used in both quasi-asymmetrical and symmetrical configurations.
Benefits of Super-Symmetric Arms
Adjustability and Versatility: Super-symmetric arms are designed to be easily adjusted, accommodating a wide range of arm lengths. This versatility makes it simple to find the optimal configuration for any vehicle, whether it’s a short or long wheelbase. This ensures that you can always position the lift pads precisely where they need to be while still allowing the vehicle doors to open without obstruction.
Accommodates Various Vehicle Types: With super-symmetric arms, your lift can handle a diverse array of vehicles, from compact cars to long-wheelbase vans. The adjustable nature of these arms makes them ideal for garages that service a variety of vehicles.
Importance of Even Weight Distribution
Regardless of whether you are lifting a vehicle in an asymmetrical, symmetrical, or super-symmetrical configuration, it’s crucial to ensure that the vehicle’s weight is evenly distributed across all four arms. Uneven weight distribution can lead to instability and potential safety hazards. Always double-check that the lift pads are correctly positioned and that the vehicle is balanced before lifting.
