Crates, barrels and NPCs that drop the Modular Car Lift, most likely first
| From | Chance | Amount |
|---|---|---|
 Locked Crate | 1.3% | 1 to 2 |
 Elite Crate | 0.78% | 1 to 3 |
| Scientist PT Boat Dry Box | 0.73% | 1 to 3 |
 Military Crate | 0.42% | 1 |
 Underwater Lab Military Crate | 0.42% | 1 |
 Wagon Military Crate | 0.42% | 1 |
Missile Silo Scientist (underground) | 0.3% | 1 |
Scientist | 0.074% | 1 |
Heavy Scientist | 0.061% | 1 |
 Treasure Box, mission reward | 1.6% | 1 to 2 |
 Gingerbread Mine Present, Christmas event only | 0.42% | 1 |
Chance is for one container opened or one NPC killed. Amount is how many it holds when it holds any.
Each swing charges the share of the cost for 50 health, rounded up to whole resources, and restores as much health as it paid for, which can be more than 50. Nothing can be repaired for 30 seconds after it takes damage.
What the Modular Car Lift gives back in each recycler
| Recycler | Efficiency | You get |
|---|---|---|
| Red recycler | 75% | 75% Gears, 3 + 75% High Quality Metal, 150 Metal Fragments |
| Green recycler (powered) | 60% | 60% Gears, 3 High Quality Metal, 120 Metal Fragments |
| Green recycler | 50% | 50% Gears, 2 + 50% High Quality Metal, 100 Metal Fragments |
| Yellow recycler | 40% | 40% Gears, 2 High Quality Metal, 80 Metal Fragments |
The Modular Car Lift breaks down into Gears, High Quality Metal and Metal Fragments.
A recycler takes one at a time.
Figures are for one item in perfect condition. Each recycler’s name opens its full table at this item. “3 + 75%” means 3 every time and a 75% chance of one more, and a percentage alone is the chance of getting one.
In Rust, Modular Car Lift is a electrical in the Electrical category (item ID #1696050067, console shortname modularcarlift). In active play, it follows standard server rules for electrical gear across procedural maps. Inventory storage holds a single unit per slot, and uncollected ground drops despawn after 40 minutes.
This allows you to modify modular vehicles.
Crafting Modular Car Lift in Rust takes 25 seconds at a Workbench Level 2 once the 60 scrap blueprint node is unlocked, with all ballistics, crafting, and durability values read from the Rust game files. Shredding a spare copy at a green recycler recovers base materials at fifty percent yield (vs forty percent at safe-zone yellow units). Placed structures heal with a Hammer using raw materials from your inventory.
When choosing between Modular Car Lift and related electrical in Rust, prioritize researching a looted or traded copy at a Research Table (60 scrap) whenever you want to skip the 180-scrap tech tree path and save 120 scrap, or unlock the tech tree branch when your group also needs the prerequisite blueprints.
| Item | Category | Stack Limit | Craft / Source | Tech Tree / Research | Green Recycler Yield |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Modular Car Lift | Electrical | 1 per slot | Workbench Level 2 | 60 node / 180 path | Not recyclable |
| CCTV Camera | Resources | 64 per slot | World loot / gather | No blueprint | Not recyclable |
| Ceiling Light | Electrical | 10 per slot | Workbench Level 1 | 15 node / 135 path | Not recyclable |
| Command Block | Electrical | 64 per slot | World loot / gather | No blueprint | Not recyclable |

The Modular Car Lift has 250 health once placed in Rust. It belongs to the Electrical category under numeric ID 1696050067 across 83 electrical and despawns after 40 minutes when dropped on a default server across 83 published Electrical entries (79 with crafting blueprints).
The Modular Car Lift is crafted at a Workbench Level 2 from 200 Metal Fragments, 5 High Quality Metal and 1 Gears, once the blueprint is learned in Rust. Smelting raw ores and looting required components from monument crates lets players queue the craft at their workbench.
The Modular Car Lift drops from 9 container and NPC loot tables in Rust, led by Locked Crate (1.3% chance), Elite Crate (0.78% chance), and Scientist PT Boat Dry Box (0.73% chance). It belongs to the Electrical category under numeric ID 1696050067 across 83 electrical.
The Modular Car Lift recycles in Rust at an unpowered green recycler into a 50% chance of Gears, 2 High Quality Metal plus a 50% chance of one more and 100 Metal Fragments. It belongs to the Electrical category under numeric ID 1696050067 across 83 electrical.
The Modular Car Lift takes 25 seconds to craft, down to 12.5 seconds at Workbench Level 3 in Rust. It sits in the Electrical catalog with item ID 1696050067 alongside 82 related electrical and despawns after 40 minutes when dropped on a default server.
The Modular Car Lift repairs in Rust once placed with a Hammer for up to 111 Metal Fragments and 5 High Quality Metal at full wear (5 swings). Hammering a placed structure restores health with no maximum-durability loss after a 30-second combat cooldown.
Blueprint progression for Modular Car Lift at Engineering Workbench in Rust charges 60 scrap on the target node and 180 cumulative scrap along the prerequisite branch, while direct blueprint study at a Research Table charges 60 scrap.
Dropped on the ground in Rust, the Modular Car Lift despawns after 40 minutes by default. Picking it back up into a player inventory or storing it inside a base container immediately resets that ground despawn timer, which the server scales by item rarity tier.
The Modular Car Lift has 32-bit signed item ID 1696050067 and shortname modularcarlift in Rust. Server plugins, custom loot tables, Vending Machine listings, and automated Industrial Conveyor filter strings reference these two identifiers under the Electrical category (stack limit 1 unit per slot).
Server administrators in Rust spawn the Modular Car Lift in the F1 developer console by typing inventory.give modularcarlift 1 or inventory.giveid 1696050067 1 for a single unit. Both console spawn commands require administrator or moderator privileges on the server, while regular players can bind a quick-craft shortcut key instead.
