The BendPak 5216163 replacement part is the direct replacement for the BendPak lift it came off of. This is the genuine BendPak part — same fit and same working specification as the one already on your lift. Ordering the BendPak replacement part from us gets you the OEM piece that matches the lift, not an aftermarket knock-off that is close but not the same.

This is a manufacturer-spec replacement part for the lift it was designed for — same dimensions, same material, same fit as the part that came off. That matters more on a lift than on most equipment, because lift parts do not work in isolation: a part that is close-but-not-quite transfers its error into whatever it bolts to, rides on, or seals against. A knock-off that is a few thousandths off might install fine and then wear its neighbors for the next five years. When you order to the published spec, the part drops in and the rest of the lift never knows anything changed.
Confirm this is the right part before you order
Lift manufacturers revise parts mid-production without changing the model name, so the same lift bought two years apart can take two different revisions of the same component. Before you order, find the model plate on the lift — on most 2-post lifts it rides on one of the columns at eye level, on 4-post lifts it is usually on a column or the power-unit side runway — and note the full model number and serial. The serial dates the lift to a production run, and that is what decides which revision fits.
If the plate is painted over or missing, take a photo of the part you are replacing next to a tape measure and send it to us. Between the dimensions, the mounting pattern, and what lift it came off of, we can almost always identify the exact part before you spend money on the wrong one.
Before you install the replacement, compare it side by side with the part you removed — length, bore, thread, and mounting pattern should match exactly, not approximately. If the old part is worn out of shape, measure against the mounting points on the lift instead. A mismatch caught on the bench costs you a phone call; a mismatch caught after installation costs you the job twice.
Never modify a lift part to make it fit — no drilling out holes, no grinding down shoulders, no washers-as-spacers improvisation. A part that needs persuasion is the wrong part, and a modified part on a machine that holds vehicles over people is a liability with your name on it.

About this bendpak 5216163 crosstube large
Every order for the bendpak 5216163 crosstube large starts with a fitment confirmation. Two lifts of the same model can carry subtle revisions between production years, and a component that fits a rev-A lift may not fit a rev-B lift built two years later. Before your card is charged we verify the piece against the parts breakdown for your specific lift serial number. That five-minute step is the difference between the part arriving and being installed the same afternoon versus the wrong piece showing up and the shop losing a day of billable work.
Technical specification & installation notes
Torque and installation notes for this component follow the manufacturer's service manual. Where a torque value is called out, use a calibrated torque wrench and follow the tightening sequence the manual publishes for that fastener location — many lift assemblies require star-pattern or crosswise tightening to distribute load evenly. Skipping that step is one of the most common reasons a correctly-sourced bendpak 5216163 crosstube large still ends up needing to be re-serviced within a year. Our tech line at 800-674-9302 will walk your installer through the procedure if the shop does not have the current service manual on hand.

Warranty coverage
Every bendpak 5216163 crosstube large sold through Automotive Lift Services carries a one-year manufacturer-defect warranty.
