In the spirit of Christmas, I thought I would drop in and leave a little gift.
I havent been on here in a while. But over the years have gotten a lot of help on this forum.

Recently I purchased a cheap Harbor Freight table lift and set out to convert it to air over hydraulic.
but I could not find a real good source of a complete conversion.
So I stated planning, buying parts and chopping, drilling, sawing away at it.
I finished it this morning and here is a short video of the first test.
I'll get another video up later showing what I did, how I did it and a parts list for those who have been wanting to do the same.

 

Great job!

 

Very nice. Ya gotta love it when the machines do the work!

 

Even though I use the wheel chock to hold the bike in place while I dismount I'm too fearful of what could happen so I always put straps on the bike as well before lifting it.

Nice job on the air over hyd though!

 

Nice job on the lift. Be real careful riding that thing up though...If you happen to lose your balance at all, you are going to drop your bike at the least and get hurt real bad at worst. You might want to consider building some side ramps.

 

Great mod job on the lift table

 

+1 on the side ramps and for testing the lift, I'd use about 10 80# bags of Quickcrete in place of the actual bike!

 

Nice work man.Can't wait for the how-to vid.I'm all over this one.

 

I have long legs. Im actually touching the floor with my right leg the whole way. Can only do one leg though.
I have a platform I am going to build for that entire corner. The lift will sit flush with it when finished.
