I'm looking for a gas over hydraulic unit to power the legs on my lowboy trailer amongst other things. I want a quality rig that will work day in and out.
I think that I have a commercial Honda unit picked out but wondering if any of you guys have any suggestions. I'm very capable of building my own unit but just looking to buy one off the shelf this time.
Thanks for any suggestions.

All the logging guys around here use the honda units. When I was driving lowboy the only problems I ever had is when someone ran it out of gas and didn't fill it back up.

If you are willing to build one, I'd strongly consider using a yanmar diesel motor. Gas was fairly hard to find in the woods.

I could build one but I'm swamped at the moment and want to order one now. Like tomorrow now. I know all about hydraulics and sheet but just wondering if there are any good deals out there on a fairly commercial unit. Gas power is preferred for this purchase.
Thanks
