Portable Car Lift Specification Example for Courier Fleets: OEM Replacement
Portable Car Lift Specification Example for Courier Fleets: OEM Replacement
This is a worked specification for portable car lift in a oem replacement programme. It is the document we would send a buyer who asks what exactly they are getting: the material, the dimensions that are actually controlled, the finish, and the checks that happen before anything is packed.
The oem replacement version exists because the duty cycle on courier fleets is not the same as on a showroom vehicle. Where the two are specified identically, something fails later — usually warranty claims traced back to a single lot.

- ultrasonic cleaning
Where this example applies
Programmes that run oem replacement most often specify this build for courier fleets. Related applications include construction equipment, city buses, workshop replacements, light trucks, rental motorcycles.
Checks before packing
- Dimensional report against the approved drawing.
- AQL 2.5 sampling on the finished lot.
- Finish inspection under agreed lighting.
- Carton drop test on the first lot of a new packing specification.
Questions buyers ask
What testing is included?
Standard lots ship with dimensional and hardness reports. ECE R90 documentation is issued with the shipment when your market requires it.
What happens if a lot fails inspection?
The lot is re-inspected against the golden sample, and replacement pieces ship on the next available booking at our cost.
Can you match an existing sample?
Send a sample and we will reverse-engineer the specification, then produce a counter sample for approval before any bulk starts.
Do you handle mixed containers?
Yes. Most programmes consolidate several part numbers into one container to keep freight sensible at 500 pieces per line.
Ask for the current catalogue and the specification sheet for this line.
