Hello, Im looking for some help on converting a car hoist that is currently setup as 4-post, independently operating, telescoping, hydraulic cylinders to a system that could run more effectively as maybe an air-over-hydraulic? I know relatively nothing about how to go about converting the system, or if it is even possible, but if anyone could even comment on if this would be worth doing or if Im out to lunch on this Ill take those comments too. The hoist is located inside a car trailer, and the current hydraulic system has a huge pump, huge reservoir, and is embarrasingly slow. My goal is to be able to eliminate all three of these headaches with a relatively cheap conversion. Any help or direction would be greatly appreciated. I can be reached by e-mail at Jessemac21@aol.com, drop me a line if you think you could help or point me in the right direction.

Thanks in advance,
Jesse
