Automotive Service Equipment parts lists

BOMwiki maps 34 automotive service equipment products, each exploded into a recursive bill of materials: 2,215 parts in total, down to individual fasteners and cells. The largest is the mobile column lifts at 151 parts across 7 top-level assemblies; the simplest is the headlight aimer at 16. Across the domain the same components recur: fastener set, ball bearing, SMD passive (R/C/L) and connector appear in most of these machines, and each is a single shared page here, so a correction to one fixes every product that uses it. Open any product for its parts diagram, the function of each part, and the full bill of materials.

Paint Thickness Gauge A handheld eddy-current or magnetic probe that measures the thickness of paint, primer, and clear coat on a vehicle's metal surface, displaying the reading in microns or mils on a built-in LCD and alerting an inspector to single-stage vs. clear-coat layers. 88 parts · 7 subsystems

Portable Scissor Car Lift A mobile scissor-frame hydraulic lift for temporary elevation of vehicles, using a single pump unit and manual wheel positioning for alignment. 98 parts · 8 subsystems

Pressure Brake Bleeder Sealed pressure tank that forces new brake fluid through brake lines at 15–30 psi, expelling air bubbles from master cylinder, calipers, and wheel cylinders. 26 parts · 7 subsystems
