MOHAWK 18K 2 POST LIFT DESIGN
- Mohawk’s two post lift columns are constructed of 3⁄4” thick forklift masts, for a lifetime of trouble-free service.
- Each Mohawk two post lift features a carriage that rolls on 8 double-sealed, self- lubricating steel ball bearing rollers. Not plastic slide blocks.
- The Mohawk TP-18 2 post lift features two [2] large 4” heavy duty cylinders which make for safer, steadier lifting than single cylinder lifts or competitive brands with smaller cylinders.

HEAVY DUTY 2 POST LIFT OPERATION
- Hydraulic fluid is pumped between the two cylinders through the overhead (or optional in-floor) stainless steel hydraulic lines. Patented hydraulic synchronization eliminates the need for restrictive height overhead covers, cables, pulleys, equalizer chains or obstructive floor plates.
- To raise the carriages, Mohawk’s TP-18 two post lift uses direct drive lifting rods which eliminate the wear & maintenance associated with lifts that use cables, chains, & overhead cable covers.
- Mohawk carriages roll on eight double sealed, self- lubricating, steel ball bearing rollers, for a lifetime of maintenance-free operation.
- Mohawk bearings last longer, with less friction and wear than competitive lifts using plastic slide blocks which need constant greasing and maintenance.
100% designed, welded, and manufactured in the U.S.A.
MOHAWK TP-18 FEATURES
Mohawk’s Heavy Duty Two Post Lifts offer FULL unobstructed under vehicle access for all repairs, take up minimal bay space and leaves wheels hanging free for tire, brake or any other necessary repairs.
Mohawk’s TP-18 features a large and stable footprint measuring 30” wide by 24” constructed from 3⁄4” thick plate. Mohawk’s large base gives stability to the lift, while distributing the load to the shop floor.

Heavy duty column construction with direct drive cylinders, direct drive lifting rods (not cables) and stainless steel hydraulic lines (not rubber hoses) which will never wear.
Each Mohawk TP-18 two post lift features a carriage that rolls on eight [8] 4” double sealed, self lubricating, heavy duty ball bearing rollers for a lifetime of trouble-free service (not plastic slide blocks).
Mohawk’s TP-18 two post lift has ALL position 1” thick mechanical locks on BOTH carriages that engage for the full length of travel. Available with optional single point air lock release (requires air to lift).
This photo shows Mohawk’s cylinder size vs competitive brands. It’s pretty simple: LARGE 4” CYLINDERS = longer seal life and lower operating pressures than smaller competitive cylinders. There’s a reason Mohawk Lifts offers the best warranty in the business!
We know you’ll be lifting heavy vehicles! That’s why Mohawk Lifts come standard with 5”, 71⁄2” and 10” stacking adapters (for hard to reach frames).
This photo shows Mohawk’s FORK LIFT CHANNEL & bearing (bottom) vs. competitive columns & plastic slider (top). Plastic slide blocks will wear out over time. Mohawk’s sealed roller bearings have a significantly longer life span.
Mohawk’s TP-18 comes standard with 3-Stage Arms for varied fleets.
