Extra Tall Extra Long 4-Post Storage Lift for Long-Wheelbase Trucks
A standard 4-post storage lift runs out of runway before a full-size half-ton truck is fully on the platform — and any extra height bought with a taller PRO9000 also adds runway length that consumes garage floor space. Long-wheelbase trucks need both extra runway length and extra height, without the dually-spec footprint.
The Atlas Garage PRO8000EXT-L is a free-standing, portable 8,000 lb 4-post lift with extra tall and extra long runways. The runways measure 185" (15' 5") with a maximum wheelbase of 173", lifting height 84" (7') to the top of the runway and 78.5" of under-runway clearance — sized for almost any long-wheelbase truck short of a dually rear axle.

Made For
Built for homeowners and restoration shops parking long-wheelbase trucks and SUVs, who want a portable 4-post storage lift sized for the truck instead of the sedan.
- Owners of half-ton and three-quarter-ton trucks (non-dually)
- Long-wheelbase SUV owners storing a daily driver underneath
- Restoration shops handling full-size project trucks
- Show-truck collectors using the lift for vertical storage
- Detail centers needing a long, tall, portable elevated platform
Features
-
8,000 lb Capacity, Extra Tall & Extra Long — Same 8,000 lb capacity as the standard PRO8000EXT, but with 20 more inches of runway length, 3 more inches of width, and 14 more inches of height than the base PRO8000.
-
185" Runway Length / 173" Max Wheelbase — Fits almost any long-wheelbase truck that isn't a dually — the dual rear wheels of a true dually won't fit between the column lock assemblies.
-
84" Lifting Height to Top of Runway — 7 feet of total runway lift height, with 78.5" of clearance under the runway for a tall daily driver underneath.
-
Free-Standing Portable Design — Doesn't anchor to the floor. The included caster kit drops in and the entire lift rolls to a new bay in minutes.
-
Single-Point Lock Release w/ Lock Ladder — All four column locks release together from one handle, with a multi-position lock ladder so the runways can stop at any working height.
-
Double Lock Safety System — Redundant secondary safety catches the runway weight even if the primary lock fails — a non-negotiable feature on a storage lift.
-
Caster Kit + Steel Approach Ramps Included — Two of the most expensive 4-post accessories are in the box — the caster kit alone makes the lift truly portable, and the steel ramps provide a smooth drive-on transition.
-
110 V Electric Operation — Runs on a single 110 V circuit (30-amp breaker required) — no 220 V wiring needed in a residential garage.
Why the EXT-L Instead of the EXT or PRO9000
The standard Atlas Garage PRO8000EXT solved the height problem for storage lifts — 79 inches of under-runway clearance for a tall daily driver underneath the stored car on top. The EXT-L solves the length problem at the same time: 20 extra inches of runway length and 3 extra inches of width, which is enough for a long-wheelbase F-150 or RAM 1500 half-ton to sit fully on the lift.
If you need to park a dually, the Atlas Garage PRO9000 is the right choice — its wider column spacing accommodates dual rear wheels. For everything else from a long-wheelbase half-ton truck down to a sedan, the EXT-L gives the most usable storage in a residential-garage footprint.
Built to Move Bay-to-Bay When You Need It
The included caster kit installs in just a few minutes and converts the free-standing 4-post into a rolling platform. Move it out of the way to clean the bay floor, push it outside for a wash session, or relocate it between bays — without lifting any of the 1,900 lb of lift weight by hand.
The lift is engineered for homeowner and restoration use, not for a commercial repair bay that cycles the lift up and down dozens of times per shift. Used as designed — storage and occasional service — it gives a long-wheelbase truck owner the same kind of vertical garage real estate that a sedan owner gets from a base PRO8000.
The Right 4-Post Lift for Your Garage
If you park a long-wheelbase truck or SUV and want to store it over a tall daily driver, the Garage PRO8000EXT-L is the smallest-footprint 4-post that fits the bill — 8,000 lb capacity, 185" runways, 173" max wheelbase, 84" lift height, 78.5" under-runway clearance, all on a portable free-standing chassis.
Caster kit, approach ramps, jack tray, drip trays, wheel stops, and wheel chocks all come with the lift — no extra accessory order to make it functional out of the crate.
