Revolutionize Vehicle Handling with a Hydraulic Forklift Wheel Lift Attachment

In industries where repositioning vehicles rapidly and safely is essential—from dealerships and body shops to impound lots and municipal fleets—a hydraulic forklift wheel lift attachment delivers unmatched efficiency, precision, and ease of use.

This innovative wheel lift attachment mounts securely on standard forklift tines and employs self-centering, spring-loaded C‑hooks (or hydraulically actuated arms, depending on model) that wrap around vehicle wheels. For example, the SUPERIOR Wheel Lift features a spring-loaded, self-centering head, sealed roller bearings, and interior hardware to minimize wear and maintenance, all without external hydraulics. These features eliminate the need for external hoses or greasing, reducing downtime and maintenance demands.

With a forklift capacity of 3,500–5,000 lb, these attachments transform forklifts into compact, damage‑free tow machines. They are compatible with many Class I, IV, V, and VI forklifts and typically work with forks up to 48″ long and up to 3″ thick. Once in place, the attachment slides under the vehicle’s wheels, lifts securely using pivoting or hydraulic arms, and secures in place with ratchet straps—allowing rapid, one-operator movement of vehicles and eliminating minimal body damage from contact.

Why choose a hydraulic wheel lift attachment?

• Enhanced safety and control: Operators face forward and can precisely observe the load, reducing risk and improving visibility compared to traditional tow trucks.
• Cost savings: Say goodbye to expensive contract towing services. These units pay for themselves quickly through saved time and labor.
• Minimal downtime and upkeep: With no hoses or exposed hydraulic components, and sealed bearings, these units require little maintenance.

Whether your business needs slimmer footprint and speed, or long-term reliable performance, a hydraulic forklift wheel lift attachment provides a smart, practical solution for vehicle mobility needs.
