With bed on

This was the first time they both moved.

I had my locations close, but I'm making new upper mounts for top pins to go into on the bed. They can be moved about 1/4" that will give about 3 more degrees of tilt. But the main reason for that is so the cylinders will be resting when bed is completely down and not under pressure. I still don't know how much she will lift, with all the math and measurements to take I just hope a wet bucket of sand . And I only have light duty hose hooked up. I did order more 350psi hose and found some 5/32 700psi rated hose. As long as I can keep fittings together I'm sure I'll have the power to lift. I don't know what pumps are rated but it's the one from premacon and I know I'll never have something to max out one of those pumps. Now for this project the larger pump they offer may have been better for increased flow. Takes a good bit of oil the full those cylinders. 1" top stage, 3/4" second stage and 1/2" third. Glad I made a big tank .
