The Rotary FJ671-9YL lift arm component is the direct replacement for the Rotary lift it came off of. Cross-referenced as ALS-9755-37, it is the genuine Rotary part — same part number, same fit, and same working specification as the one already on your lift. Ordering the Rotary lift arm component 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: ALS-9755-37
- Brand: Rotary
- Type: Genuine OEM lift arm component
The restraint gear on a 2-post lift is the toothed gear that engages when the lifting arm swings in under load, locking the arm at whatever angle the tech set it to. When teeth wear round, chip, or the pawl gear that engages into the restraint gear loses its point, the arm can swing under load — and a swung arm with a vehicle on it drops the vehicle. Any restraint gear that will not positively catch the arm under light hand pressure needs to come off, whether the teeth look okay or not.

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.
Also inspect
- Arm pin — if you had a bad restraint gear you may also have a mushroomed or grooved arm pin
- Foot-pad rubber — intact, securely attached
- Return spring on the pawl
- Arm itself — broken welds, cracks, severe rust
A restraint gear that will not engage is a lift that is unsafe to load. Do not put a vehicle on the lift until you confirm both arms lock positively under hand pressure.
Why buy your Rotary lift arm component from Auto Lift Services
We install, inspect, and repair Rotary lifts every week — the ALS-9755-37 is a part we handle in the shop, not a random SKU we drop-ship.
- The phone answers if you have a question mid-install — call 800-674-9302.
- We confirm the right part for your lift's serial and production year before you order.

About this fj671 low step
Every order for the fj671 low step 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 fj671 low step 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
Placing an order online is the fastest path — add to cart, check out, done. If the shop needs a purchase order, net-30 terms, or a formal quote for a fleet-service contract, our accounts team handles those via email at [email protected] or by phone at 800-674-9302. Volume pricing on the fj671 low step kicks in at 10+ pieces on the same order for common wear items. Ask about the volume rate specifically before you check out — many fleet buyers stock 6-12 pieces at a time and the discount is meaningful over that shelf life.
Warranty coverage
Every fj671 low step 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 fj671 low step 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.
