I've had this lift for years, I re-engineered it over time. I replaced the manual lift with an air over hydraulic lift cylinder that I had a local shop build for me. Also, I welded 1/4 inch steel gussets in place where a weld broke on me.

I welded up some side extensions to slip on and make the table wider when I am working on the bike.

Exactly what I'm looking to do myself, a welder buddy of mind has a bunch of 11" wide strips of tread plate on the way and he owes me a few favors.
