It serves as the rigid member that stabilizes the equalization housing, ensuring that the cables and pulleys remain in proper alignment under load. Over years of use, these struts can suffer from structural fatigue or impact damage, which can lead to cable misalignment and uneven lifting. This SVI International replacement is engineered to the original specifications, restoring the rigid framework necessary for safe, synchronized operation. Its heavy-wall construction is designed to handle the lateral forces generated during vehicle elevation, providing a stable path for the lift's mechanical synchronization system. This part is a direct-fit solution for maintaining the legendary durability of Western lift systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduct highlights\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStructural Backbone:\u003c\/strong\u003e Maintains the geometry of the equalization system for consistent performance.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeavy-Duty Build:\u003c\/strong\u003e Engineered to resist bending and torsional stress during high-capacity lifts.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDirect OEM Match:\u003c\/strong\u003e Fits seamlessly into the existing WP-2 and AR-2 lift frames.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDurable Protective Coating:\u003c\/strong\u003e Finished to withstand the oils and chemicals found in professional shops.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpecs\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOEM Reference:\u003c\/strong\u003e U-606\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSVI Part Number:\u003c\/strong\u003e BH-9701-08\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCountry of Manufacture:\u003c\/strong\u003e USA\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDirect replacement models\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWestern:\u003c\/strong\u003e U-606\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSVI International:\u003c\/strong\u003e BH-9701-08\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFits Models:\u003c\/strong\u003e Western WP-2 and AR-2 (post-7\/85) and P-2 series\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThis item can be found in:\u003c\/strong\u003e Western AR-2, Western P-2, Western WP-2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eYou will receive the same product or an OEM-Equivalent that meets the highest standard of the OEM with warranty that will be a direct-fit.
