    Installing lift around previous lift holes

Just drill your holes and use quality anchor bolts torqued down. I check my hoists about every 6 months for 150...

    Used Motor Oil - Need Suggestions

    Why don't you call around and see how much you can get 4 it. I have heard of shops getting up to 1.25 per gallon for it. Also, how much do you have? I use 300 gallons a year to heat my 40x50 shop. I keep it very warm and I have a steady supply. If I upgraded my set up I could cut that in half...

    Air Compressor ?

    That is the unloader port. You need a copper tube that would go to the kick out switch. When the switch turns off it trips the valve to take the pressure off of the pump head, makes for easier start up. Dan....

    Do you have a 1/8 inch pipe plug fitting in that one way valve closest to the 90 elbow? That small line should be connected to the pump side of the valve to blow off the pump head pressure at start up. Dan.....

    Where do you have your compressor?

    I have mine outside for 20 plus years now, 3 hp 80 gal Rol-Air. The pump is a K30, around 20cfm. It sits under a small roof I made for it. If it gets below 25* below zero it can have a hard time starting. I switched to 0w20 synthetic and it helped a great deal. Dan.....

The face flange on the inside of the rim corrodes and expands out to put more pressure on the lug nuts. The best advice I can give is to...
