ABSTRACT:
A wheel lift for lifting multi-wheeled vehicles. A wheel lift is applied at each wheel and has a generally U-shaped base supported by an air bearing under each arm. A pair of adjustable chocks engage the wheel near the floor. Either a hook engages the wheel generally opposite the chocks or for application of the device on the inboard side of the wheel, a support member picks up the vehicle structure to resist any overturning moment and provide stability.
