US 2025/0026618 A1 · ADAPTER ASSEMBLY FOR LIFTING A VEHICLE

Abstract

An adapter assembly includes an adapter, a fastener, and a cross member. The adapter includes a first plate defining a first aperture and a second aperture, and a second plate defining a third aperture and a fourth aperture. The second plate is spaced from the first plate such that a recess is positioned therebetween. The recess is configured to receive a portion of a frame of a vehicle such that the first aperture and the third aperture align with a frame aperture defined by the portion of the frame. The fastener is selectively insertable through the first aperture of the first plate, the second aperture of the second plate, and the frame aperture to couple the adapter to the portion of the frame. The cross member is selectively insertable through the second aperture and the fourth aperture. The cross member is configured to engage with a lift device.
