Just looking for another angle for
"cheap hydraulic's"! Later, doodlebug.
It's all in the dia of the piston.The larger the piston dia,the less pressure you need to move the load. If your only useing it for a dump,get the pump from USM tech.Just don't run it for over two minutes at a crack. I've cooked one already,& burned the crap out of my hand.
