Abstract
A lifting apparatus in a vehicle chassis straightening or aligning bench including a frame which can be raised and lowered and on which a vehicle chassis can rest. The lifting apparatus includes at least one post guide which can be removably secured to the frame and slidably receive a post therein. The lifting apparatus is positioned under the chassis such that lowering of the frame will result in the chassis bearing on upper end of the post and upon further lowering of the frame, displacement of the frame from the post so that a clamp device can be inserted between the chassis and the bench frame.
