Better get all the oil out of the cylinder first or when you open the drain valve, you will be wearing that oil.

I have a Titan 1500 xlt lift. Hydraulic or air lift. Excel makes it, perhaps you can buy the pump seperately from them reasonably. I've had mine for a year and love it, can't beat 47" lift height.

Take the demensions off of the new table cylinder, and do a search on "air over hydraulic cylinders"
Harbor freight has them, Northern tool has them, as well as other vendors.

When you got the new table from HF, was it in stock, or did they charge you a freight charge?

Good Luck

It was in stock. I had a $299 coupon from bike magazine. I can post the code if anyone wants it. You can order online and pick up at the store. You get the discount online with only the code, you don't need the coupon.

The cylinder on the table is funky. I has some structural support welded to it. It's not a standard cylinder. Somewhere I saw a guy had hooked up an air driven hydraulic pump to one. Not sure how. I think I would prefer have air over hydraulic rather than just air. The fluid is more stable and does not compress.

Someone out there in HDforum land has done this. I just know it.

Air over hyd pump is around 150.00 through ESCO. Not bad and the pump is a foot valve.

Can you post a picture of the wheel chock you bought with it? I know that HF sells a couple of different chocks, and everyone says that the one that comes on the lift is crap.

I'm just asking, because my $299 coupon is sitting on my nightstand. I just haven't gotten around to going to buy it yet. I know I'll need to change out the chock on it.

I had that hf chock too, but with my 21" front wheel and wife's sportster it didn't seem stable enough for my taste. Went with the condor chocks. To be honest it was the front piece on the xhock, seemed a little square. Condor Chuck more wedged style, maybe it could be modified. I put it on e track so I could use in my trailer too.

As others have said, the stock chock is crap. I got this one for $39 and it works well.
