Anthony AC Series: A Cantilever Liftgate Built for Long-Term Dependability
All about Anthony AC Series Liftgate
The Anthony AC Conventional Series combines rugged strength with classic simplicity. Originally inspired by the first liftgate Anthony built in 1941, this updated version features spring-assisted cantilever performance, a grease-free design, and smart features tailored for today's stake bed and flatbed vehicles.
Perfect for hauling construction materials, landscaping gear, or general cargo, this Anthony Liftgate model doubles as a tailgate when stowed and delivers reliable lift power when needed.
Top Features of the AC Cantilever Series
- Grease-Free Design: The AC uses lifetime-warranty service-free bushings at all pivot points—no lubrication required. This drastically reduces maintenance and downtime.
- Spring-Assist Platform: A torsion spring system allows the platform to open and close easily, saving time and reducing operator strain.
- EZ Mount Installation: Each AC liftgate ships factory-assembled, filled, and tested. All that’s left is to attach the platform—no complex setup needed.
- Mechanical Safety Latch: A heavy-duty latch provides redundant safety during transit alongside the hydraulic lock system.
- Sealed Electrical System: Marine-duty toggle switches are epoxy-potted to prevent corrosion and moisture damage—perfect for tough job sites.
