About this 2 post car lift accessory
What this footpad set does
The Round Rubber Footpads (B2260-4) (B2260-4) is a set of four round rubber footpads for a 2 post car lift arm assembly. Round-profile footpads are the traditional saddle shape — they distribute load evenly across the pinch weld and grip the frame without twisting under load, which is what square-profile saddles can do when the vehicle is off-center.
Which 2 post car lift models it fits
Round rubber footpads in this set are dimensioned for the Set of 4 2 post car lift line. Pin diameter and saddle bolt pattern match the OEM spec so they drop into place as a direct replacement for the factory pads. If you're using aftermarket arm assemblies, verify pin diameter before ordering — text a photo to (833) 736-7290 and we'll match it against the manufacturer part page.
Why round instead of square
Round rubber footpads are the safer default on any 2 post car lift working with mixed vehicle sizes. Square-profile saddles have their place — bigger contact area for heavy trucks — but they're picky about being centered on the frame. Round saddles self-center on the pinch weld as the arms come up, which is what keeps a badly-placed vehicle from twisting off the lift on the way up.
When to replace them
Rubber footpads on any 2 post car lift are a consumable. Every arm cycle compresses the rubber a bit; every hot summer accelerates the aging; every dropped tool leaves a nick that turns into a tear. Most shops replace pads every 5–7 years on commercial 2 post car lift service. Home garages can go 10+ years if the lift sees light duty.
Ordering and installation
The set of four ships flat-rate. Installation is a hand-tool job — the retention pins come out with a punch, the pads slide off, and the new set drops in. Cycle the arms through their full swing to verify clearance before lifting a vehicle. This is a maintenance item, not a specialty repair — most 2 post car lift owners handle it themselves in about 30 minutes.
Why the right accessory for a 2 post car lift matters
Every accessory on this site has been vetted against the same standard as the 2 post car lift models we stock — meaning it has to be a factory OEM part or a factory-authorized aftermarket component, and it has to have a real fit specification against a specific 2 post car lift arm generation. We don't stock generic footpads, generic adapters, or aftermarket "universal" parts that don't have a documented fit list.
The reason is simple: on a 2 post car lift, the accessory sits between the arm and the vehicle. Anything that changes the load path — footpads, adapters, saddle extensions — becomes part of the safety-critical assembly. A generic footpad that doesn't match your specific 2 post car lift arm's pin diameter and torque spec is a failure waiting for a service cycle. That's why we insist on documented-fit accessories on every part page you'll see here.
If you've already been shopping generic parts online for your 2 post car lift and you're not sure what actually fits, send us the model of your lift plus your current saddle or arm assembly generation, and we'll match it to a factory-verified accessory. That check is free and takes about ten minutes.
Spotting counterfeit or unsafe 2 post car lift accessories
The 2 post car lift accessory market has more counterfeit and knockoff parts floating around than the base lift market does — small parts are easier to mold-copy, and load-rating stickers are trivial to fake. A few tells to look for before buying any 2 post car lift accessory from any source:
- OEM part number stamped on the metal, not just printed on packaging. Real factory parts carry their part number cast or stamped into a hidden face. Sticker-only markings are a warning sign.
- Rated load number that matches the manufacturer's published spec sheet for that 2 post car lift model. A footpad rated 4,500 lb on a lift arm rated 5,000 lb is not a match — that's a knockoff cutting cost on material.
- ALI mark on any safety-critical component. Not all accessories carry ALI marks (aesthetic kits don't need them), but any load-path part on a 2 post car lift arm should.
- Full fit-list on the seller's page. A specialist seller will tell you exactly which 2 post car lift arm generations the part fits. A marketplace listing that says "fits most 2 post car lift models" is a red flag.
Every accessory on 2postcarlift.com carries the OEM stamping, ships with the factory box and paperwork, and has a documented fit list against a specific 2 post car lift arm generation. If you ever open a shipment from us and something looks off compared to the OEM parts page for your lift, call and we'll make it right.
Freight, returns, and warranty on 2 post car lift accessories
Small accessories under 30 lb ship via standard ground freight — 3–5 business days to most of the 48 contiguous states, tracking included. Larger accessories or complete kits over 30 lb typically move on LTL freight along with a 2 post car lift order if you're bundling; on their own, expect the same 3–5 day window with a curbside drop.
Returns work the same way as they do on a 2 post car lift itself: uninstalled and in original packaging, we accept returns within 30 days of delivery for a refund minus outbound freight. Once an accessory has been installed on a 2 post car lift arm assembly — even briefly — it becomes a used part and can't be returned to inventory. That's an industry-standard rule for load-rated safety hardware, not a policy quirk on our end.
Manufacturer warranty terms match the base 2 post car lift line — typically one year on wear items like rubber footpads, and longer on structural steel components. If a part fails within the warranty period, we handle the manufacturer claim on your behalf — you don't have to chase the OEM directly.
Ordering this alongside a new 2 post car lift
Most of the accessories on this site were designed to be added to a 2 post car lift order at the time of purchase, not months later. Two reasons that matters:
- Freight savings. A 2 post car lift itself ships on a pallet — adding an accessory to that same pallet costs nothing extra. Adding it later means paying separate ground freight for a small part, which can add $30–75 on top of a $50 part.
- Install-time integration. Accessories like column-mount workstations, air/electric routing, and specialty saddle kits are easier to install when the 2 post car lift is being commissioned than after the fact — the crew is already in the bay with the tools out.
If you're within 30–60 days of ordering a 2 post car lift and you know you'll want this accessory, add it to the same order. If you already own the lift, standalone ordering is fine — we ship these constantly on their own.
