The 96" Lightweight Foam 4-Post Ramp Kit from APEX is the ultra light, hook nose upgrade made specifically for BendPak HD-973P and HD-973PX lifts. Each 96 inch ramp delivers 11 inches of lift with a shallow 6 degree approach angle that low cars can actually climb without bumper drama. Built from high density structural foam with a rugged textured coating and a reinforced hook nose, these ramps are engineered to drop into the HD-973P / HD-973PX ramp pockets as a direct replacement for the factory steel ramps. Once you switch to APEX, you will not want to wrestle stock ramps again.

Does your BendPak four-post lift have ramp receiver brackets?
Ramp receiver brackets required for using APEX hook-nose lift ramps on BendPak 7K–9K four-post lifts. Sold as a pair.
If you own a BendPak HD-973P or HD-973PX four-post lift, you already know the drill. The car lift is great. The factory ramps are not. They are heavy, awkward, and just steep enough to make low cars complain every time they climb on. The 96" Lightweight Foam 4-Post Ramp Kit from APEX is built to fix that in one move.
Each ramp replaces the traditional steel or aluminum drive-on ramp with a long, lightweight, hook-nose alternative. You still get full four-post functionality, but with a 6 degree approach angle and a ramp you can actually move with one hand instead of bracing your whole body and hoping your back does not pop.
These four-post lift race car ramps are engineered exclusively for BendPak HD-973P and HD-973PX triple-stack parking lifts that use removable, drop-in steel drive-on ramps. The hook nose geometry, ramp profile, and pocket engagement are all matched to the dimensions of these specific BendPak models.

This kit is not intended or approved for use on any other four-post lift, even if the ramp pockets appear similar. Always verify that your lift is an HD-973P or HD-973PX before installation. Using these ramps on other brands or models can result in improper engagement and unsafe operation.
The numbers on this kit are not random. At 96 inches long with 11 inches of lift, each ramp provides a full, gradual run-up that low cars can actually live with. The 6 degree approach angle softens the breakover between the shop floor and the lift runways so splitters, lips, and long front overhangs do not have to play roulette every time they drive on.
Longer ramp length also helps with longer wheelbase vehicles and modern performance cars with bigger front overhangs. Instead of having the nose swing down toward a steep ramp edge, the chassis rotates slowly and stays predictable from the time the front tires hit the ramp to the moment they land on the runways.

A lot of foam based replacement ramps rely on a simple flat plate glued to the front. That might work for a while, but over time the plate can peel, flex, or start to separate. APEX does it differently.
Inside each 96" Lightweight Foam 4-Post Ramp Kit ramp is a contoured, reinforced hook nose insert that anchors deep into the structural foam body. That internal reinforcement ties the hook mechanically into the ramp, instead of depending on a thin layer of coating to hold everything together. Once the assembly is encapsulated in the textured coating, you end up with a hook that seats securely in the lift slot and stays there, season after season.

At the heart of every APEX ramp is a proprietary high density expanded polystyrene (EPS) core. This solid, closed cell body is engineered to support thousands of pounds while staying impressively light in the hand. It is not hollow plastic. It is not a thin metal shell. It is a full depth structural core that distributes load through the entire ramp.
Under the tire, that core feels like real equipment. The ramp does not ring, flex, or feel squishy. It simply supports the vehicle as it climbs, then holds position while you raise the lift. The EPS does not rust, does not absorb water or oil, and does not transfer heat like steel, which is ideal for shop environments where conditions are not always perfect.
The EPS core is fully encapsulated in a high performance polyurea elastomer coating. That coating forms a tough, flexible skin that resists abrasion, impacts, chemical spills, and day-to-day shop abuse. Just as important, it is applied in a way that chemically bonds to the foam, so it does not peel off in sheets the first time someone drags a ramp across the floor.

The surface is micro textured to grip both the shop floor and the tire tread. On concrete, epoxy, painted floors, and typical service bay surfaces, the ramps are designed to stay where you put them. You are not chasing ramps that scoot away under throttle or slide when a heavy front end first makes contact.
Most factory steel four-post ramps are heavy enough to be miserable. Aluminum upgrades are lighter, but still not what you would call easy. APEX ramps change the equation. The structural foam and integrated handles make each 96 inch ramp shockingly manageable for its size. You grab, lift, and carry without feeling like you just signed up for a gym session.
In day-to-day use, that matters more than spec sheets. When ramps are easy to remove, you are more likely to pull them off when you need full rear access or want a cleaner look. When they are easy to hang, you are more likely to put them back exactly where they should be. The APEX kit is built to live on and off the lift without becoming a chore.
The 96" Lightweight Foam 4-Post Ramp Kit from APEX is aimed squarely at people who actually use their BendPak HD-973P or HD-973PX lifts, not just park cars on them. Performance shops, detailers, dealers, and serious home enthusiasts all benefit from a ramp solution that protects low cars, saves backs, and speeds up daily workflow.
Drive on, raise the lift, do the work, drop it, and drive off. Simple. No more wrestling steel, no more hoping the angle is friendly enough for your lowest car, and no more pretending heavy ramps are fine when everyone knows they are a pain. Once you swap to APEX, going back to stock ramps feels like going backward.
