Mohawk Lift Adapters

I have an Atlas BP9000 lift. It comes with “Truck Adapters” that are a series of 6” 4” and 2” adapters that are meant to be stacked on top of each other for height. Well I have an old ford which the frame takes bend upward in the rear and requires all of them to be stacked to lift level. Now as you can imagine the fit and finish of Chinese lift adapters are not great to begin with. But when you stack them the slop in between each connection shows. Call me a chicken but I won’t put that kind of weight above my head or two feet off the ground for that matter with that arrangement.

Now to the point. I was at an old shop where they had several 12k pound Mohawk lifts that have really tall. Two questions. Does anyone know if the hole in the arm to place the pad in the Mohawk is the same in the Atlas BP9000? And does anyone know where I could purchase such a thing? I will be lifting small cars, jeeps, and anything with a straight frame until I get something else.

I don’t have that information at the moment. Ill measure it when I get home. If there was an available one piece tall unit like the ones pictures I would feel a lot better underneath it rather than several stacked.

I was a little off with my estimations. They are 5” 2.5” and 1.5” adapters. The link the them are below. They are of nice enough quality and fit to use on at a time. But when I stack them they are not as stable as I want them to be. So just for my peace of mind tall one piece ones are on my lift of must haves. I thought originally I would have to have a machine shop make them. But if I can buy them that would be great.

I was referring more to is atlas and Mohawk adapters comparable not so much the diameter of atlas. But thank you though

And goggle doesn't know everything because I just measured and they are 1.5". I believe the 1" you are referring to is the height. Not the thickness of the neck that drops into the arm. That's the info I'm looking for.

Roundbar plus a lathe (or a machine shop if you don't have a lathe) and you can have custom ones made to length. Shouldn't cost much and will be exactly what what you need.

So what is the diameter of the arm you need adapters for?

Forwards use 1.25" adapters
Bendpak xprs use 1 3/8"
Rotarys and challenger are large like 2inch.
