I have a Mohawk 2 Post and the P-Car is on it right now.Bought the lift used,I repaired it,modified it,installed it and use it often.The lift pictured looks similar to my Mohawk. Smaller Mohawks like mine (they make ones intended for 40 ton trucks too !) are indeed chain lifted but the chain is enormous .They are just like the mast of a huge forklift. Awesome traditional Yankee engineering. Lifts my Dodge diesel truck effortlessly - fully loaded !
Need close-ups of the carriage and particularly the Torrington bearings that interface between the mast and the carriage to be sure.
