I'm not sure of the weight capacity of the lift, but it's a lot...the hydraulic ram is fairly large! I'm trying to build this out so it's simply heavier/stouter than I'll ever need.

Thanks for the props!

Cool, glad ya like...thanks Kim!


Not much more to add, but finished the lower pivot mounts. There will be 3/8" rubber strips between the frame and bed feet, hence the gap between feet and frame/gusset...hope to quiet some of the rattling.
