Product overview

The Iron Lift MONARCH 55A extends the MONARCH alignment range to 5,500 kg. It is built for workshops that need alignment capability across a wider mix of vehicle weights, including heavier vans and light-commercial vehicles. Its 4,822 mm runways provide more wheelbase coverage than the 4,000 and 4,500 kg alignment models, while the adjustable 965-1,292 mm runway spacing retains flexibility for different vehicle tracks. The published four-wheel alignment range reaches 4,224 mm. MONARCH 55A is a strong mid-heavy alignment platform for fleet, tyre, suspension and commercial service workshops that need more capacity without moving to the larger 6.5 tonne extended alignment system.
