SHEAVE PIN — a direct-fit replacement sheave. Ordering the sheave 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-7352-07 Type: Genuine OEM sheave Equalizer cables are the reason a two-post lift with one cylinder still raises level. One column gets the hydraulic push; the other follows only because the cables physically tie the carriages together over the sheaves. Get the cables, sheaves, and lock timing working as one system and the lift lands both locks at the same click. Let any one of them go and the lift starts arriving at the top crooked. Sheaves are the grooved pulleys the cable turns on — usually two per column on a two-post, more on a four-post with its runway and crossbeam pulleys. Each one rides a pin on a bushing and has to spin true so the cable tracks in the groove. When the groove wears wide or the bushing pushes out the side, the cable no longer sits where it should and starts sawing itself apart on every cycle.

Anti-seize the pin on reassembly and install the new sheave with the bushing facing out. It's a short job that goes wrong fast if the retention hardware goes back in the wrong sequence, so the step-by-step is worth reading before you start. Full step-by-step: how to replace car lift sheaves. 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 a cable or sheave is worn out Run a rag slowly along the full length of each cable — a snag means a broken strand poking up, and even one broken strand condemns the cable. Look for cording (the outer wires unwinding), kinks, flat spots, and rust that has crept between the strands. On the sheaves, check for a groove worn oversize, cracks, and any wobble you can feel by hand. Any of those, and the part is done. Parts commonly replaced at the same time Think in sets when you order tension parts: cables in pairs, sheaves with their pins, and the lock-release cable if it is due. It is far cheaper to do the whole wear group while the lift is open than to reopen it for the piece you skipped. Tell us your model and we will assemble the kit. Safety notes Safety here is simple and non-negotiable: a frayed cable or cracked sheave is an out-of-service condition, not a watch-and-see. Replace at the manufacturer's interval or at the first sign of broken wires, corrosion, or groove wear, and always equalize and cycle the lift empty before it carries a vehicle again. Before you order A quick prep before ordering saves a wrong box: confirm your model and serial, and measure the old cable if you can. The same lift can take different cable lengths across its run, so matching the actual part beats matching the brochure. We will verify fit for your serial before anything leaves. 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.
