A vehicle leveler includes a first portion having a leading edge and a trailing edge, the trailing edge is disposed further from the driveway than the leading edge. The vehicle leveler also includes a second portion which has a leading edge and a trailing edge, the leading edge of the second portion is removably attached to the trailing edge of the first portion and the leading edge of the second portion is disposed further from the driveway than the trailing edge of the second portion. The second portion also includes an extension portion which extends from the trailing edge of the second portion toward a rear of the leveler and includes a substantially flat section disposed about parallel with the substantially flat driveway. The first portion and second portion are separate from each other until they are removably attached by a connection apparatus.

A remotely adjustable automotive lift arm allows a user to position lift arms under the vehicle, extend them to the correct length, and position lifting pads to the correct location and height, all without requiring the user to bend over or kneel. The remotely adjustable automotive lift arm includes a telescopic arm, a screw jack assembly, a camera assembly, a gear assembly, and an input shaft. The telescopic arm includes two tubes with one being telescopically engaged to the other. The screw jack assembly is used to adjust the lifting pad height to achieve a level lift of a vehicle prior to the vehicle being lifted off the ground. The camera assembly provides a live image of the vehicle's undercarriage in order to precisely position the screw jack assembly. The input shaft can receive an input torque than can be transferred to the screw jack assembly by the gear assembly.

A control system detects a loaded state for a lifting device. The control system receives a current load value from a load sensor corresponding to a load on the lifting device and compares the current load value from a previously received load value to determine a change in load. The control system receives a current displacement value from a displacement sensor corresponding to a displacement of the lifting device and compares the current displacement value with a previously received displacement value to determine a change in displacement. The control system compares the change in load with the change in displacement to determine a current load slope. The lifting device in identified in a loaded state based on a comparison of the current load slope with a load slope threshold. The control system may stop extending the lifting device after reaching the loaded state and start extending all of the lifting devices in unison to lift the load off of a base surface after all of the lifting devices reach the loaded state.
