Manual lift to Hydro lift

Recommended Posts

Can I change my manual lift on my 518H to a hyro using the hydro lift cylinder and valve from a 520H? Would I need anything special?

That should work.  You would need more than just a cyl and valve though.  As it happens, I tore down a 520H last year and have all of the stuff you would need to put the hyd lift onto the 518.  I have pics of these things, but cannot post pics in this classified ad response forum...don't know why.  However, if you will tell me your email address, I can send lost of pics to you, with some detail information as well. 

So, what is your email address?  mine is:  daveoman@windstream.net

ps... I am in n/w PA at zip 16433 and can ship things most anywhere.

NO, the 518 uses the lighter Eaton 700 trans, it will not except a hyd lift, you can swap in a Eaton 1100 trans from like a 520 and add the hyd lift, I just sold a complete trans with lift out of a 520 just for that reason.
