Sag Stopping Arm Pins

Automotive Lift Products and Accessories – Sag Stopping Arm Pins for Rotary Lifts

SVI is constantly working to solve age and wear related issues on lift models.

One example we have encountered and successfully addressed is arm sag on many two-post surface mount lifts. The arm sag problem is commonly found on lifts where the swing arm mounts inside the carriage arm support plates. In this style design, the bottom arm support plate on the carriage acts as a pivot point. Meaning, the top plate experiences inward load pressure resulting in the arm pin wearing and elongating the top hole. This results in unwanted arm sag and concerns most lift owners.

Thanks to SVI’s FP-style arm pins with top positioning fixed plate for Rotary lifts, arm sag can be eliminated or reduced. Installation only requires a level, a drill, drill bits, 3/8”-16 tap, four 3/8”-16 x 1” grade 8 capscrews and four 3/8” lockwashers per arm.

Typically affected Rotary models are often in need of SVI’s Sag Stopping Arm Pins: SP7, SP9, SPO7, SPO9, SPOA7, SPOA9, SPOA84, SPOA88, SPOA98, SPO10 and SPOA10.

Swing Arm Shims also available to help eliminate 2-post lift arm sag.
