Hi Guys,
I just upgraded my original model 5000 to the 5000 SLX and shot this video of the process. Hope it's helpful. Enjoy... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U80_ymI9IPk |

Glad you like the video. FWIW, the company says the new power units raise the frames a bit faster than the first generation...but it seems the same to me.
A few updates after a week or so... The power unit leaked. Apparently they recently received a batch with bad seals. The company sent me a repair kit with a new tank and o-ring which was pretty simple to install. When purchasing, you may want to ask if your power unit has been tested...and if not, to ship the repair kit at the same time as your order. Also had to bleed the frames mulitple times to get all the air out...but that's to be expected. The longer SLX frames also need to be positioned just right to not interfere with the front tire on lifitng and to allow accesss to the engine bar bolts. All in all, this is a great tool for working on our cars. |
