Close. This one is so old, no bladder. Pressure and fluid in the same cavity. My brother said it was old when my dad got it. And that was in the early 70's.

Yeah we had one like that in highschool in the 70s, was 50's vintage
I am sure this one is that old.
Tractor Supply carries a pencil version of Wade’s long nib pen
Had this for a while but a high side service body is so damn nice.
Harbor freight has had these for years.
I still think about it but haven't bought it yet
yaa .... my 3500-hd dumps 10ft bed off the hydro pto on the trans up & down powered .
Anyone actually used one of those? Seen them, not in person. Look interesting.
For light things they are nice. This load was 1800 pounds allegedly. Never used one for this but supposed to be fine.
I had one in the early 2000's. Wore it out rebuilding my yard. Guys at the dump would stand in awe as I unloaded the truck in a couple of minutes. It did not like the load of gravel above the bedsides. So I unload 1/2 by hand and the rest with the tarp.
Went to a race and performance show last night. "Date night" as Eileen called it. Found these. The guy started the business in November. He got tired of drilling out the rivets on sheet metal on the race cars he works on. The rivet heads always get stuck on the drill and you have to use pliers to remove them. I had just done 30 the night before. These have 3/16" or 1/8" drill points with a reduce shank behind it. So they slide right off the back of the bit. Look like a masonry bit.
Where have these been for the last 30 years?

I have one of these. It’s pretty great. Works ok on a yard of dirt or mulch. Works ok or a yard of gravel. I wouldn’t do a whole bed full.
Not new to me, but severely under utilized.
Getting some maintenance.
So what say the tribe 240V 30amp or 240V 50amp?

50 amp.
Yep I saw that as I was cleaning the thing out and geasing the slides
Yes I can. I have 3 50 amp outlets available. 1 of them the ac installers used for my 2 mini splits. I could use that when not running the ac.
I also have at least 1 30 amp 240 outlet. Which I need to use for the lift.
Still have a bunch of organizing to do with shop.
I really want to put a loft in back. Was quoted $15k, just can't spend 15k on loft.
Putts around moving benches, power strips and entertainment system wiring.
The Roku issue was a setting in the LG TV HDMI menu

DIY it, there is nothing difficult about the install. Just invest in a rotohammer to drill for the concrete anchors. I installed mine solo 3 years ago.
typo I meant Loft, 24' x 19' with stair case. I have a lift works great need to change the power source.
