VEVOR Hydraulic Long Ram Jack 8-Ton Engine Hoist Extension, 26"–45.7" Lift, Clevis Base

The VEVOR Hydraulic Long Ram Jack is an 8-ton, heavy-duty hydraulic lift that mounts to most shop cranes to raise engines and heavy loads from 26" to 45.7" with a single piston pump and clevis base.

This long-ram jack converts a standard crane or engine hoist into a faster, less strenuous lifter for garage and shop work. Built from high-grade steel with a polished piston rod and internal bypass and overload protection, the unit is designed for repeated residential or commercial use. It ships with a rubber-grip handle and fits most shop crane clevis mounts for straightforward installation.

How much weight can this long ram jack safely lift?

The VEVOR long ram jack is rated to support up to 8 tons (17,363 lbs) when used vertically and mounted correctly to a compatible hoist. The hydraulic steel cylinder and internal overload valve help protect the system from excessive extension.

• Rated capacity: 8 tons / 17,363 lbs
• Hydraulic cylinder with built-in overload protection
• Vertical use only — mount on compatible shop cranes

What is the lifting range and how far does the ram extend?

This jack offers a wide lifting span: it starts at a minimum height of 26 inches and extends to a maximum of 45.7 inches, providing a 19.7-inch stroke. That range covers most engine and transmission lift scenarios in garages and small shops.

• Minimum lift height: 26 in / 66 cm
• Maximum lift height: 45.7 in / 116 cm
• Stroke length: 19.7 in / 50 cm for greater reach and clearance

What features make this jack durable and reliable?

The unit uses a large-diameter hydraulic cylinder to reduce internal pressure and wear, plus a polished piston rod with polyurethane sealing for long service life. A powder-coated, lead-free finish resists oil, grease, and dirt, simplifying maintenance.

• High-grade steel frame for strength and rigidity
• Y-style polyurethane sealing ring with backup to minimize oil bypass
• Built-in oil bypass and overload valve for hydraulic protection

How easy is it to operate and install on a shop crane?

The clevis-style base allows direct mounting to most shop cranes, and the single-piston pressure pump offers smooth, low-effort lifting. A rubberized comfort handle improves grip for quicker, safer operation during repetitive lifts.

• Clevis base for straightforward mounting to compatible hoists
• Glide-action pressure pump reduces user effort
• Includes handle with rubberized grip; weighs about 20.5 lb (9.3 kg)
