I like to tinker so I ordered the air jack and it will not fit the lift. It would take major design changes to make it work.

That sucks, I was going to order one. Looks from the pics like they are the same. Thanks for the post.

Not to hijack the thread, but has anyone found a reasonably priced replacement jack if the one that comes with the table lift takes a dump? Are they actually rebuildable?

Default Conversion to air

Sorry to hijack this post I have gotten the Hydraulic lift from the GF for Christmas and I was wondering if anyone has actually modded it to air and how you were able to do it.
Can you post the process or let me know how its done.?

Thanks.

I completed the conversion last week. Works great. I will post pictures and instructions tomorrow. Can be done in 3-4 hours. Lots of ports to plug and one part to tap. Link below for the air/hydraulic unit I used.

You can get the same one from HF for 134.00
