Looking good Reg. Like the style of that one. Water is 10 pounds to the gallon so your lifting good. Since I upgraded the screw drive in the FWD it will lift a 30 lb bag of lead. Like you, I went to a bigger threaded rod 5/16" but instead of a steel nut I made the slider out of delron and taped it with a 5/16 tap. Just amazing how slipery the stuff is and now there's no friction at all.
