OK so tell me where I can get one cheaper that will run a hydraulic pump that will lift 165,000lbs from the ground to 8 feet in the air in with 2-50 ton cylinders in less than 1 Minute, the 18 hp powerfist engine from princess auto cant do it

I think that Slim might have fixed it by now...this thread is six months old  ;)
I followed a rainbow out to a garage and found a leprichaun. The rainbow ended in a potted cactus on his porch, but there was no gold :(

Ya we sold that trailer and got a bigger one.
Why does your Jeep say Toyota on it?
