ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for lifting and supporting a vehicle relative to the ground includes a base assembly and a relatively shiftable carriage assembly. The base assembly includes a base resting on the ground and an upstanding post, and the cradle assembly is supported on the post for up and down movement. A piston and cylinder assembly is connected between the base assembly and the cradle assembly for moving the cradle up and down, and a pawl and ratchet assembly permits unrestricted upward movement of the cradle assembly while preventing unrestricted downward movement. A locking assembly is provided for locking the cradle assembly in a raised position relative to the base assembly. The locking assembly includes a hole in the post, a hole in the cradle assembly that is aligned with the hole in the post in the raised position of the cradle assembly, and a pin insertable through the hole in the cradle assembly into the hole in the post to prevent the cradle assembly from being moved either up or down relative to the base assembly.
