Thanks for your comment. We are better prepared than most. In our 30+ years living here, we have seen a few of these storms for sure.

Thank you for your comment! They have become more popular in US households as well.

@@mickeyj4228 yeah they are good machines, in the uk this machine is branded as Hotpoint

The ISC is a 8.3 big block, 350 hp and 1050 lbs torque. I tow a 2018 RAM 2500 that weighs 8300 lbs and a Dodge Dakota that weighs about 5000. They both tow the same.

It's a great engine!

@kendalgee5808 Thanks for the comment. The duckbill does make contact with the rim. It is nylon and I've noticed no scratches from it.

@@mickeyj4228 Then there was no need for it. The only advantage ic is it is made out of Nylon, so perhaps that will prevent scratches. So maybe its be worth it. Eventually I will make a youtube video titled " Do you need a duckbill adapter " and show I can install a tire in 1 minute using the HF manual tire changer, tire bead paste, a Dewalt wood clamp, and the HF bar that came with the tire changer.

The duckbill at $20 was worth it for me. For years, I've driven on the tire or used a bumper jack to break the bead and discounted and mounted them with tire irons. Do I need the duckbill? No, but it works great for me.

Thank you for taking the time to comment!

Thanks for your comment. I used the machine to break the bead on the 17 inch tire in this video, the 33" tires on 20" wheels on my Ram 2500 and over 30 other tires. I did have to reenforce the bead breaker. The secret is using soapy water on the bead. Do you own one of these tire changers?

Thank you for your comment! FYI, there is an Advantage Lifts owners support group on Facebook. Not many complaints to be found there. Are you buying the 9000HD due to its compact size? I have the 240V motor on my SS-11000-WD which may be faster that the 115V. I agree that the air bridge jack is the only way to go. It lifts my RAM 2500 Cummins diesel with ease. I agree that the price point is fair. I stepped up to the SS-11000-WD because I had the space and since this is an item I will only buy once, the cost difference was within my budget.

$89.00 on sale with the coupon, but you're mot wrong. Inflation is real.

@SEEMORE45 I installed it myself. The warranty is only valid if installed by a certified HVAC tech that will put ther name and license number on the warranty paperwork. HVAC Installers charge more than these units cost on Amazon.

@Madmaxd it's really pretty simple. If you need to watch start to finish check out the video of mounting my son's low profile 17 inch tires. I made that video because of comments like this one. Hope it helps.

Thank you for your comment! It requires 20 amps. The motor comes with a 6 ft or so long 3 wire with no plug. I added a standard 240V welder plug, NEMA-6-30P/6-50P. Please let me know if you have any other questions.

@@mickeyj4228 thanks a lot for the info . I’m excited to get mine it’s estimated pick up time is the 20th if September.

Have you viewed the Advantage lifts assembly play list? Shoot me an email to llrtgarage@gmail.com if you need the link to the youtube play list or just want to chat. You will love your new lift! Mickey

@@mickeyj4228 yes I have watched them all like 5 times each lol thank u

@brandonmortensen8208 I did the same. I had the entire Playlist memorized. Where are you picking up your lift?

Thank you for your comment! I'm glad this video helped. Take note or better yet take a picture of how the belt is routed on the tensioner.

Thanks for your comment! I'm not sure of my front axle weight. My truck empty going over the scales at the local dump is 8340# with me and 3/4 tank of fuel. Both the air bridge jack and the jack tray are rated at 4500#. I believe this is conservative for legal reasons. In my opinion the jack tray would easily support your truck. You could lift your truck using the jack using an air bag jack or bottle jack and support the truck with jack stands. I also believe the air bridge jack, with a high-volume air compressor would lift it as well. At the request of a viewer, I made a 5-minute video posted on my channel titled "Will the Advantage Lifts Rolling Air bridge Jack lift a 2500 RAM with the Cummins Diesel?" in which I show the jack lifting my truck and discuss my air setup.

:)

@stratoslice Thanks for your comment! There is no movement. I've needed to use a ladder to climb into my 2500 RAM while it was lifted. Zero movement.

@@mickeyj4228 thank you!

You're most welcome.

Thank you for your comment! Rexall made a great motorhome! Yes, the Fleetguard LF9009 is a direct replacement for the Donaldson P553000. Yes, synthetic blends such as Delo 400, Mobile Delvac 1300, Shell Rotella T5, or any oil with the API classification of CK-4 meets the Cummins requirement. All 3 are great oils. Feel free to reach out if I can assist with anything else.

@@mickeyj4228 thank you so much, I own a park model no engine haha and a Fleetwood gas engine so this is my first time owning a diesel. Infact is so my first time. I put 275$ worth of diesel and then the next week I topped it off earth 50 gallons of gas 🤦‍♀️😫. 835 tow bill right from the pump. Anyway thank you for you’re video I’m saving that $600 from camping world right the road and trying to do this myself. Just figured out the mode shifter thing and diagnosing the fuel levels. 7 quarts low in the Allison transmission 🤦‍♀️it said . Just bought this rig so finding out a few things. Haha

So, you learned how to check the transmission fluid level using the shift up and down arrows? That's great, just make sure the transmission is at operating temperature when checking. You'll never want to go back to a gas motorhome. Fixing the power steering hose has probably been my biggest job in 15 years of ownership.

@@mickeyj4228ok hi my friend. So I dropped another gallon of ATF in it got it up to temperature and then did the calculations- the shifter maybe out of calibration idk but it still said 4 quarts low. Like it said first. Anyway dipstick don’t lie, check it running way below the add hot mark - checked it not running but 170+ degrees and it read add hot ? I’m I doing this right? So I’ve added 7 total quarts so far. Still says add hot 🤦‍♀️ looks like this Allison was bone dry!

It must have been very low. Go by the dipstick with the transmission at operating temp I just double checked a post I made when I changed the 2 transmission filters and upgraded to the Allison Transynd Fluid. I actually called Allison with my serial number to verify the filter kit part # and asked about capacity. The tech told me refill "by the book" is 17 qts. Some will be full at 16 and some may take 18gts. I put in 4 gallons, drove it until transmission was at operating temperature. Checked it and added one quart and it was full on the dipstick. On my next trip when stopped at a rest area I checked it with the control panel, and it was "OK"

NVM I guess you did... Sorry bout that

Thank you for your comment! I'm always looking for tips!

@@jesses1589 I do like the Cooper and Hunter app better. Thanks for your comment.

@@mickeyj4228 Thanks for sharing your experience too! I connected to Alexa, going no further app wise.Stay Cool!

The fill is still H2O. I just did a lawnmower carb. Put carb in a wide mouth jar with gasoline. I came out perfect.

Thanks for your comment. The 240V motor has a 6 foot or so 3 wire with no plug. I added the standard 6-50P welder plug. Have you ordered your lift yet?

@@mickeyj4228 I'm still saving up for it. I have the money to purchase the dx 9000 xlt, but after watching your videos, I've decided to spend the extra few hundred dollars for the 11000-wd. Since this will be a once in a lifetime purchase.

@wnicorn6702 that was my thought.

@@mickeyj4228 is the receptacle connected to a 50 amp breaker? That's what my 6-50r is hooked up to. I'm not an electrician and don't want to burn down my shop lol.

@wnicorn6702 you'll be fine. The motor is only energized when you push the lift button. There is no chance of" burning down your shop", provided your outlet is wired correctly.

@stevenewsam6698 I think the 9000XLT would be fine. The 9000XLT gives the option of moving one runway to outer holes to make it wider. I bought the SS-11000-WD just in case I needed to lift a dually, and the cost was just slightly more.

@@mickeyj4228 Thanks for the reply. A big difference, I think is the 115 volt motor on the 9000xlt vs the 230 volt motor on the ss11000. I’m looking at the BendPak vs the Advantage. BendPak offers 115 or 230 on their 9000 pound lift but Advantage does not from what I see. A 115 volt motor lifting the Cummins is a concern.

The 115 V motor will have no issues lifting the 2500 RAM with the Cummins. The 240V motor appears to be slightly faster in lifting. These lifts are "over built". My OCD was torn between the 9000XLT and the ss-11000-wd and decided on the 11K to "future proof" since this was a onetime purchase for me. I would have no concerns with the 9000XLT with the 115V motor.

@@mickeyj4228 Thanks. What did Advantage recommend for a breaker for your lift? I have a 40 amp welder receptacle in my shop.

The 240V motor recommends a 20 amp. It comes with a 6 ft or so wire with no plug. I installed the standard 3 prong male welder plug. It will be fine on your standard 240Vwelder receptacle. I actually use my lift with a welder plug to a RV 50 amp plug adapter. Have you decided on the ss-11000-wd?

@jrfan592 Thank you for your comment. I've never had any issues with it leaking. Is your leaking from the fitting?

@@mickeyj4228I think it’s leaking from where the hose connects to the fitting at the bottom, if not there then possibly the drain on the bottom. I need a new hose for it either way.

​@jrfan592 maybe try adding a second clamp.

@@mickeyj4228 it had two fitting on it but I figured out the problem, it was the drain plug on the bottom. It was cockeyed af hahaha. I’m gonna make a video showing it in a bit.

@@jrfan592 I'll check out your video.

Thanks for the comment. I wish, lol. That would have been handy when I replaced the 40 ft long power steering hose.

@SolarArrdvark13 thanks for your comment. It comes with 4 plastic drip trays. The jack is a rolling bridge jack so you could slide it back between the rear end and the transmission. The bridge jack tray also has a drain bolt. I hope I answered your question?

Thank you for your comment! The Advantage ss-11000-wd has been perfect. I highly recommend it.

@daypayton123 Thank you for your comment. I like it better than the $900 Pioneer I put in the wife's truck. Still amazed at the cost.

Thank you for your comment. Please circle back and let me know how it works out. It seems muck better than the Briggs 7.25 tgat was on my DR.

@@mickeyj4228 I did the swap ran it for a few hours to break it in. Sold the splitter and the new owner has ran it over 40 hours already and it hasn’t skipped a beat! Good engine for sure!

Thank you for the follow-up. Mine is still working perfectly as well. Seems like you had no issues with it powering the log splitter. Great to know!

Thank you for your comment! A car lift is life changing as you get older. I wish I had bought one 30 years ago.

I'm sorry you don't feel like you got your money's worth. I make videos for friends and family. Send me a link to your video on the subject.

The new Amazon engine is great. Highly Recommend it.

Thank you for your comment! I posted the link in the description, the price has cone up on Amazon. www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0BTD59KCT/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&th=1

They were used for decades before circuit boards were invented. I believe tire manufacturing has also come a long way. Thank you for your comment. Have a blessed day.

@@mickeyj4228 I owned a tire shop for 4 years, anytime the expensive balancer had faults and wouldn't operate, id pull out the trusty bubble balancer. It never had any electrical faults and it could easily balance drag radials when the electric balance would throw faults.

I just walked out and measured, from the bottom of the pully cover side to side is 101 inches. Outside runway to outside runway is 85 inches. I drive my RAM 2500 on without folding the mirrors in. I you have any other questions or would like to have a call just let me know.

I appreciate it, my dually is a little wider than stock 103 inches side wall to side wall. Having a hard time finding a lift to accommodate, without going commercial

I've had a Ram dually on my lift, but it had stock tires and no wheel spacers. I just took the measurement from outside of cable to outside of the other cable and it is 110.5 inches. This is the measurement taken for my friends 2011 RAM dually as he measured from outside bed fender to outside bed fender which was only 96.5 inches. His tires did not stick out past the fenders. What truck do you have?

Ford f350

Are you confident in your measurements? Im curious as to what makes your F350 so much wider than stock? Think goigle says is 94 inches? My diesel pusher motorhome is the maximum DOT limit of 102 inches.

Thanks for your comment. I've tried it that way and I prefer the leverage to be lower closer to the duckhead. Maybe I built the center pipe too tall?

It's not made to be used that way. It'll causethearm the duck head is on to flex

It's not made to be used that way. The arm that the duck head is mounted to isn't solid enough to not flex and put it at an angle

Thanks for your comment. I spin the lift around sideways towards the back of the RV port. The rear overhang of the motorhome is over the runways, not on them. I have a short video that shows this.

Thank you for the comment. I'm done giving my money to tire shops. Prices have got outrageous.

Thank you for your comment! The vertical tube is 2" electrical conduit with a 2 " receiver welded to it that slides through a piece of hitch tubing. The red duck head is bolted to 1/8 " steel plate that is weld to an old piece of floor jack handle. it slides into a short piece of roll bar tubing that's welded to the hitch tubing. I also replaced the bead breaker tube with the same roll bar tubing.

Thank you! If I did more tires, I would buy a Mayflower tire machine. They are reliable and priced right. With the mods, the Pittsburgh gets the job done.

Uthjfgh😊

Thank you for your comment. I believe I adjusted the locks sometime after this video and one lock may have been 1/4 inch off. Just went and listened to the video again, they are very close. I didn't hear a "click, clack". Definitely not far enough out to be a safety issue. I make it a habit to go well past the lock hole before lowering onto the locks. Paying close attention to how the lift settles onto the locks is also a sign you may need to adjust them.

Thank you for your comment. The most time-consuming part was deciding on how to do it. Drilling the hole near the black tank was also a long measure twice and think about it moment :)

I was originally going to purchase the 9000 XLT, but went with 11000 as it was about $600 more at the time. I do like the auto flappers on the 9000XLT. Both are great lifts.

@@mickeyj4228 Mine "pre dates" the auto flappers... 50/50->90, 50 /50 chance 90% chose in error, MAYBE I should have opted for the 11,000.. In reality can't complain.. could be a decent excuse to get a 2nd lift 🤣

Not sure, but I think the tire changer is made in China.

Thanks for your comment. No need to drill any holes. I just dropped the pin in the existing hole and tightened it down. I did use a centering cone. They are RAM 20 inch 8 lugs wheels.

Thanks for your comment! I did a couple sets of trailer tires with it mounted to the pallet. It worked OK. Before I did the 33" truck tires om my RAM I bolted it to the concrete using 2" drop in anchors. This is much better, and quicker not having the pallet moving around.

Thanks for your comment. I've used POR 15 for years. "POR-15 works because it chemically bonds to rusted metal and forms a rock- hard, non-porous coating that won't crack, chip, or peel. It keeps moisture away from metal with a coating that is strengthened by continued exposure to moisture". They have much more detail on their website. por15.com/pages/faqs
