The BendPak 5701653 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.

Do the math on a dead lift bay: a bay that bills steadily is producing hundreds of dollars a day, and the part holding it hostage is very often something small. That is the real cost equation on lift parts — not the price on this page, but the days between failure and repair. The shops that feel it worst are the ones that wait until a part strands a vehicle in the air on a Friday. Keeping the known wear items on hand, or ordering them the day symptoms show up, keeps a twenty-dollar part from charging you a week’s rent on the bay it shut down.
Not sure this fits? Here's how to check
Pull the number off your lift's model plate first — model and serial both. Manufacturers run mid-cycle revisions that keep the model name but change hardware, so two lifts with the same name on the column can take different parts. The serial is what removes the guesswork.
Second check: compare the old part against this listing before you order. Length, mounting pattern, and thread sizes tell most of the story. If anything doesn't line up, or if the old part is too worn or broken to measure, call us with photos — we work on these lifts every week and can usually confirm fit from a picture and the lift's serial faster than you can dig through a parts diagram.
While the lift is already apart, replace what is on the same clock. Parts that wear together should be replaced together — the labor of opening the lift up is the expensive half of the job, and doing it twice for two parts that could have shipped in one box is the most common money leak in lift maintenance. Check the mating parts, the hardware, and anything you had to disturb to get here.
Downtime pressure is exactly when shortcuts happen — the temporary fix, the not-quite-right part, the lock that gets bypassed for one job. Do not let a busy schedule talk you into running a lift in a condition you would flag on someone else’s equipment.

We install, inspect, and repair BendPak lifts every week — the 5701653 is a part we handle in the shop, not a random SKU we drop-ship.

About this bendpak 5701653 safety cover
The bendpak 5701653 safety cover is a direct-fit replacement engineered to restore original manufacturer performance on the lift model it services. Every piece we ship carries the exact dimensional and material specifications the OEM published for that application. Fitment on this component is critical: it interfaces with adjacent hardware in ways that any deviation from spec can drive premature wear on nearby parts or trigger the lift's mechanical safety systems into an unexpected condition. Shops that source this from us instead of a generic aftermarket substitute consistently report zero fitment issues on first-time installation.
Technical specification & installation notes
Cycle life on this piece depends heavily on operating conditions. In a typical commercial repair shop running 6-10 lifts per day, the bendpak 5701653 safety cover should deliver five to eight years of service before showing measurable wear against the OEM inspection specification. In a high-volume tire or alignment shop running 20+ lifts per day per bay, expect service every three to five years. It is designed to be a serviceable component; when it does wear it wears within safe operating margins that trigger visible symptoms — drift, uneven wear, minor leakage — well before failure becomes a safety issue.

Warranty coverage
Every bendpak 5701653 safety cover sold through Automotive Lift Services carries a one-year manufacturer-defect warranty. If it fails within that window due to a defect in material or workmanship, we replace it at no charge. Damage from improper installation, use outside the lift's rated capacity, side-loading, or modifications to the parent lift are not covered. The warranty is documented on your original order receipt — retain that record for the coverage period. To submit a warranty claim, contact us with the order number and a photo of the failure at [email protected].
Cross-reference & fitment
Alternate applications for the bendpak 5701653 safety cover sometimes exist. Where a common part fits multiple lift models across a manufacturer's catalog, cross-reference sheets show the compatible models explicitly. If you are consolidating parts stock and want to know which of your lifts the piece covers, email the request to [email protected] with a list of the lift models in your bay — we return a compatibility grid showing which lifts accept the replacement and which need a different number.
