Warranty

Warranty ▾
Warranty basics
Challenger Lifts, Inc. (CLI) warrants its lifts to the original owner only; the coverage is not transferable. CLI will, at its discretion, repair or replace any part that is found on inspection to be defective during the applicable warranty period. Coverage applies only when the lift is installed, operated, and maintained in line with CLI's installation, operation, and maintenance instructions. Using unapproved parts or accessories voids the warranty, as does any repair attempted by someone who is not a CLI authorized service representative. Normal maintenance, adjustments, wear and tear, and damage from improper handling, abuse, misuse, or negligence are not covered. The warranty is valid only if the lift is registered with Challenger Lifts; registration must be completed online (challengerlifts.com/register-your-lift), otherwise the warranty period begins from the invoice date of purchase.
Warranty length
5 years on structural parts, 2 years on functional parts, and 1 year on labor. Structural parts include the carriage, columns, column extensions, overhead beams, arms, cross beams, runways, wheel stops, ramps, bolsters, sync rails, and plungers. Functional parts include power units, cylinders, sheaves, sheave pins, hoses, hydraulic and pneumatic fittings, cables, adapters, latches, valves, and controls.
Remedies and costs
Repair or replacement of defective parts is the exclusive remedy under this warranty. For the covered period, CLI also pays reasonable transportation and/or labor costs to replace those parts. This warranty is exclusive and replaces all other warranties, express or implied, including any implied warranty of fitness for a particular purpose, which is expressly excluded. No employee, agent, dealer, or other party may extend warranties on CLI's behalf. CLI is not liable for special, consequential, or incidental damages arising from any breach or delay in performance of the warranty. The warranty is governed by the laws of the Commonwealth of Kentucky and is subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of Jefferson County, Kentucky.

FAQs

What is the lifting capacity of the Challenger 44040E? ▾
The Challenger 44040E has a maximum lifting capacity of 40,000 lb (20 tons). This capacity is suitable for waste trucks, transit buses, medium-duty commercial trucks, and construction vehicles within this weight range.
What is the maximum wheelbase the 44040E can accommodate? ▾
The 44040E is the extended-wheelbase model in the 40,000 lb series, accommodating vehicles with wheelbases up to 370". The distance between columns is 350". For longer vehicles, consider the 44040X which handles up to 430" wheelbase.
What electrical service is required for the 44040E? ▾
The 44040E requires 230-460V three-phase electrical service. At 230V, the lift draws 28 amps; at 460V, it draws 14 amps. A licensed electrician should install and verify the electrical supply before lift installation.
What are the concrete requirements for installation? ▾
The lift requires a minimum 4" thick reinforced concrete floor rated at 3,500 PSI or higher. The concrete must be free from cracks and seams and fully cured for at least 28 days before the lift is anchored.
What warranty coverage does the 44040E include? ▾
Challenger provides a 5-year warranty on structural parts (columns, runways, carriages), 1-year warranty on functional parts (power unit, cylinders, chains, controls), and 1-year labor coverage. The warranty is valid for the original purchaser when the lift is properly installed, used, and maintained according to Challenger specifications.
What's included with the Challenger 44040E? ▾
The lift includes four columns, extended runways, diamond-plate approach ramps, the synchro-power hydraulic system with dual cylinders, 10HP three-phase power unit, single-point air-actuated lock release, lever controls, anchor hardware, and installation manual. Rolling jacks are available as an optional accessory.
How is the 44040E shipped and delivered? ▾
The 44040E ships via freight to commercial addresses in the contiguous 48 states. A forklift or loading dock is required for unloading. Curbside delivery is standard. Inspect all packages for damage before signing the bill of lading and note any damage on the delivery receipt.
Are rolling jacks available for the 44040E? ▾
Yes, Challenger offers optional rolling jacks ranging from 15,000 lb to 35,000 lb capacity. These rolling jacks allow technicians to lift individual axles for wheel service, brake work, and suspension repairs while the vehicle remains on the lift. When installed, the width between runways is 43" to 53.5".
What is the difference between the 44040, 44040E, and 44040X models? ▾
All three models have 40,000 lb capacity, but they differ in wheelbase capacity and overall length. The 44040 handles up to 310" wheelbase (36' length), the 44040E handles up to 370" wheelbase (41' length), and the 44040X handles up to 430" wheelbase (46' length). Choose based on the longest vehicles you need to service.
What maintenance does the 44040E require? ▾
Regular maintenance includes inspecting chains, hydraulic fluid levels, and safety locks; lubricating moving parts according to the maintenance schedule; checking anchor bolts; and inspecting runways and ramps for wear or damage. Refer to the installation and operation manual for the complete maintenance schedule.
How long does it take to raise the lift to full height? ▾
The 44040E reaches full rise height of 73" in approximately 70 seconds. The 10HP three-phase motor provides consistent, reliable lifting speed even under maximum load.
Can I install the 44040E myself? ▾
While owner installation is possible, professional installation is strongly recommended due to the size and complexity of the lift. Proper installation is required for warranty validation and safe operation. Improper installation may void the warranty and create safety hazards.

Let customers speak for us

from 2154 reviews

Could not ask for more from a two-post lift at this price. The 11,000 lb rating gives plenty of headroom for trucks and SUVs. Install was a weekend job and it has run trouble-free since.

Lark I.
Katool KT-M110 11000 lbs Two Post Car Lift

This mid-rise scissor lift is perfect for our space. The frame is heavy and stable with no wobble at full lift. Ideal for a one-bay shop that needs flexibility.

Vance H.
Katool KT-X90E 8000 lbs Electric Mid Rise Scissor Lift

The KT-T830 makes low-profile tires effortless. It handles large-diameter wheels that our old machine could not. Money well spent for a busy bay.

Greta J.
Katool KT-T830 12"-24" Rims Light Duty Assist Arm Tire Changer

Outstanding tire changer, especially with the assist arm. The turntable clamps low-profile alloys without scuffing. The bead breaker blade has serious power for stubborn beads. Build quality feels heavy-duty throughout.

Ruby T.
Katool KT-T830 12"-24" Rims Light Duty Assist Arm Tire Changer

This combo set up our whole tire bay in one purchase. The changer's jaws and the balancer's cone set both feel well made. Footprint of both machines fits a single bay comfortably. Both arrived well packed and went together without drama.

Caleb I.
Katool KT-T800 Tire Changer & KT-B760 Wheel Balancer Combo

The KT-X90E does exactly what a busy bay needs. Low-profile design slides under low cars easily. Ideal for a one-bay shop that needs flexibility.

Wren H.
Katool KT-X90E 8000 lbs Electric Mid Rise Scissor Lift

This mid-rise scissor lift is perfect for our space. The frame is heavy and stable with no wobble at full lift. Perfect height for brake, tire, and suspension work. Ideal for a one-bay shop that needs flexibility.

Hugh N.
Katool KT-X90E 8000 lbs Electric Mid Rise Scissor Lift

Buying the changer and balancer together was the right call. Footprint of both machines fits a single bay comfortably. Both arrived well packed and went together without drama.

Knox Z.
Katool KT-T800 Tire Changer & KT-B760 Wheel Balancer Combo

Drive-on, lift, done. Exactly what we needed. The 11,000 lb capacity handles everything from sedans to our 3/4-ton truck with margin to spare. It doubles as storage parking, which freed up a whole bay. Assembly took an afternoon with two people and went smoothly.

Nora J.
Katool KT-4H110 11000 lbs Four Post Car Lift

Hands down one of the better purchases we have made for the bay. The four-jaw turntable centers wheels quickly and clamps securely. The carburized steel jaws hold the rim firmly without marring the finish. After hundreds of tires the only upkeep has been routine lubrication.

Cecilia T.
Katool KT-T800 12"-24" Rims Wheel Clamp Tire Changer Machine

Love how portable yet sturdy this lift is. The frame is heavy and stable with no wobble at full lift. Feels much sturdier than its weight class suggests.

Ezra D.
Katool KT-X90E 8000 lbs Electric Mid Rise Scissor Lift

Could not ask for more from a two-post lift at this price. Padded arm rests protect rockers and the telescoping arms reach awkward pickup points. A year in and it raises every vehicle dead level with no drift.

Vivian G.
Katool KT-M110 11000 lbs Two Post Car Lift

Best upgrade our two-bay shop has made. Padded arm rests protect rockers and the telescoping arms reach awkward pickup points. Install was a weekend job and it has run trouble-free since.

Calvin N.
Katool KT-M110 11000 lbs Two Post Car Lift

This machine handles run-flats like nothing. The press arm holds the bead down so mounting goes quickly. The mount head leaves a clean rim every time. Cut our tire service time noticeably once the crew learned it.

Travis A.
Katool KT-T830 12"-24" Rims Light Duty Assist Arm Tire Changer

Best mid-rise we could have bought. Low-profile design slides under low cars easily. The frame is heavy and stable with no wobble at full lift. Feels much sturdier than its weight class suggests.
