I got my hands on an older VBM (made by Challenger) 9,000lb 2 post lift.

The issue I have is that the standard 98" inside width is pretty thin. I'd prefer to set it up with 108" inside. That way I could use it on my 102" wide trailer.

This lift uses a pair of roller chains for distributing the lift equally. Since the posts will be mounted to the floor and the chains use master links to join them in the drive over tray, could I just add the required number of extra links to obtain the desired width? Refabbing the tray and drive-over plate would be easy, because these parts just protect the chains from car traffic.

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks,

Blair
