An automotive lift system includes at least one stationary primary lift and a mobile lift caddy configured to remove a vehicle from a primary lift while the vehicle is elevated above the workplace floor and then transport the vehicle to another location. The lift system employs detachable pivotable lift arms that are removably attached to the lift arms of the primary lift, and which can transfer to the lift caddy. Also, the lift caddy may have clamp lift pads that can be used to remove the vehicle from the primary lift and either also remove the pivot lift arms or not remove the pivot lift arms. This system can also be used on existing primary lifts.
