The Challenger 40876L drive-up ramp is the direct replacement for the Challenger lift it came off of. This is the genuine Challenger part — same fit and same working specification as the one already on your lift. Ordering the Challenger drive-up ramp from us gets you the OEM piece that matches the lift, not an aftermarket knock-off that is close but not the same.

Specifications

• Part number: 40876L
• Brand: Challenger
• Type: Genuine OEM drive-up ramp

These parts wear from repetition and from abuse. A pad that lifts twenty cars a day compresses and tears far sooner than one that works part-time. But abuse ages them faster than hours ever will: an adapter dropped and bent, an arm hit by a car pulling out, a carriage overloaded past its rating. Rubber pads are consumables that need regular replacement; steel parts last until something bends or cracks them.

Replacing your drive-up ramp

Replacing an adapter is usually drop-in, but the fit is everything: the new adapter has to reach the correct height, seat square on the pinch weld or frame, and clear the rocker. Set it in place and load-test it before trusting a car to it. The step-by-step guide covers how to confirm it's seating right. Not sure on the procedure? Find your lift in our parts lookup or call and we will walk you through it.

Find the right part for your lift

Want to be sure before you buy? Pull the model and serial off your lift's plate and open our Challenger parts lookup to open the exploded parts breakdown for your model — find your part on the drawing and you know it fits. New to finding your model number? our guide to finding your model number covers it, or send a photo of the plate and we will read it for you.

Signs this part is worn out

Check the arms for straightness and the pins for wear. Sight down each arm for a bend from being backed into or overloaded, and check that the telescoping sections slide without excessive slop. Worn arm pins and retainers let the arm lift or rotate under load. An arm that's bent, or that flops on a worn pin, isn't holding the car where you set it.

Parts commonly replaced at the same time

Order structural parts in the set they belong to. A single fresh pad among three flat ones does not restore even support, and the pins and hardware around a worn part are usually due too. We keep the right versions for your lift and can assemble the full contact-point kit in one order.

Safety notes

Do not overlook the structural wear items just because they are simple. A worn arm pad or a cracked ramp weld can let a vehicle walk or drop, and they fail quietly until the day they do not. Inspect contact points every service and replace anything crushed, cracked, or bent before the next lift.

Before you order

A little prep saves a wrong part: confirm model and serial, count how many you need, and match the mounting against what came off. Pads and adapters wear as a group, so ordering the set is usually the smart move. Ask about the companion hardware while you are at it.

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.
