NSF Automotive Certification Program offers services for the entire automo-tive supply chain by certify-ing parts, distributors and collision repair shops. Parts are verified via testing and inspection to identify quality and equivalence to OE parts in form, fit and function.

Collision repair shop certification enables shops to demonstrate that an independent organization evaluated and certified the capability of their facility, procedures, training and internal processes to execute higher quality, as well as consistent and safer repairs.

Distributor certification closes the supply chain gap between parts manufacturers and repair shops by addressing the key role distributors play in providing quality parts, ensuring full parts traceability and recall processes.

ProLine Tool & Supply, LLC is introducing the Motor City Lift King to the auto collision and auto repair indus-tries. ProLine has spent a few years working with shop owners during the prototype stage to determine the most important features for the Motor City Lift King. One key element behind the Motor City Lift King is that it takes only three square feet of floor space when in the stored posi-tion and converts to the working position with only two pins and less than 30 seconds of effort. The Motor City Lift King is designed for one person to safely remove or install pickup beds, camper toppers, semi hoods, car, truck, and semi doors with zero human lifting and never the need of a second person. There are several ways to remove or install these heavy bulky items, but the Motor City Lift King is the quickest, safest and best way. Every shop owner needs a Motor City Lift King.
