I got my e tank built and the 854 off the pickup. I have never used an e tank before but I tried it out on a couple of old chairs. It worked great.post-14549-0-95840300-1431305199_thumb.j A contractor gave me the rebar from one of our josites and I got the tank for a roadside sale. It had two cuts but a little 6 mil plastic and duct tape to line the cuts, a few nuts,washers,and bolts and a little welding, I now have my first e tank. I have been cleaning the abides after each use . Any info for best practices would be appreciated.

Thanks

I took advantage of my wife's Mothers day pool party and had the young guns get the 854 off of the pickup. My intent was to take it off in pieces.I have a naval hernea repair and am limited to max 50 lbs lifting. They were eager to flex their muscle and help me out. Now I just had to get it to the shop in the back yard about 200 yards. The transmission is locked up so I used the Raider tow tractor. The tow bar got bent a little but that is an easy fix. Now I can start my 854 rebuild.post-14549-0-33111400-1431391556_thumb.j

What do you have hooked up to the front of your all business looking raider?  That thing looks like a beast!

That is the temporary hydraulic tank. It holds about 1.5 gal and adds about 25 lbs with tank, support framing, and hyd oil.
