Exhaust Adapter - Alemite - 339424 — a direct-fit replacement lift adapter. Ordering the lift adapter 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: BL-2004-078
- Type: Genuine OEM lift adapter
Adapters take a beating because they're the parts techs handle every day — stacked, swapped, dropped, and driven over. A bent lip, a mushroomed top, or a cracked weld on a frame-cradle adapter comes from that daily handling as much as from load. Because they're small and get tossed in a pile, they're easy to grab without a second look — which is exactly how a bent one ends up under a car.
Replacing your lift adapter
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
The surest way to get the right part is to work from your lift's own breakdown. open our parts lookup, choose your model, and every part is mapped on the drawing with its number and price. If you cannot find the model plate, our guide to finding your model number explains where each lift type hides it, and our phone line is open if you want a hand.
Signs this part is worn out
Start with the pads. A good pad is thick, square, and grippy; a worn one is crushed flat, cracked through, torn at the edge, or hardened smooth so it no longer bites. If a pad is missing chunks, oil-soaked, or compressed past half its original height, replace it — a slick or crushed pad lets the vehicle's lift point slide right off the arm.
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.

About this 339424 exhaust adapter
Every order for the 339424 exhaust adapter 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
Cycle life on this piece depends heavily on operating conditions. In a typical commercial repair shop running 6-10 lifts per day, the 339424 exhaust adapter 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.
Shipping & ordering
Shipping runs 3-5 business days on standard ground to the lower 48 states. Expedited overnight and two-day options are available; call 800-674-9302 before ordering to quote expedited freight. We stock the 339424 exhaust adapter in Iowa and ship same-day for orders confirmed before 2 PM Central. Orders that come in later than that or on a Friday afternoon pick up on the next business day. A tracking number gets emailed to the address on the order the moment the package leaves our dock.
Warranty coverage
Consumables and wear parts like this are covered under the manufacturer defect warranty for twelve months. Because the 339424 exhaust adapter is a component that eventually needs replacement in normal operation, warranty coverage specifically addresses failure due to manufacturing defect, not failure due to normal end-of-life wear. Our team can help distinguish between the two on a phone call if there is any question after installation — call 800-674-9302 and describe the failure pattern; we will tell you honestly whether it looks like a warranty case.
Cross-reference & fitment
Fitment on the 339424 exhaust adapter is verified against the lift serial number when the order comes in. Even inside one manufacturer's catalog, a lift model built in one production year can carry subtle revisions from the same model built two or three years later. Sending us the lift serial number when you place the order — either in the order notes or in a follow-up email — lets us verify the piece against that specific serial's parts list. That five-minute step catches revision mismatches before shipping and prevents the delay of an incorrect delivery.
