Thanks.....

I have finally gotten around to finishing my lift.

Mast and all is mounted. Just need to get some hydraulics on it.

I had planned on using a complete unit off a dump trailer ( was told by the local dealer they would work fine) but then I read the manual. 1.4 gpm with a 30 second duty cycle... the 3" cylinder 65" long has a volume of 2 gallons! The pump would need to run almost three times it's maximum on time.

So I am no reworking the original pump. Just need to get some control valves on it.

FYI... I see you list Ontario on you location. I am living in VT but was born and raised in Welland Ontario

Thanks again.... Mike
