Dan and Elliot,
You both have very sharp eyes, i thought i can run away with that.

The lift hyd cylinder shud be mounted vertically the main chassis, but i have
some small problem, i need to make space for two gigantic batteries as seen below..so i tried to mount the cylinder further to the rear end. On drawing, it should work, but of course i'll loose some lift power because of odd lifting angle. See pic below for the actual ones. I'll try to mod further during the assembly, plan to hide the cylinders better.
