I have reverse on my console and it's a pain in the butt to get it into reverse. I plan to upgrade to the hydraulic as soon as it's available.

just get bayouboy to fab up one of his pin pullers and mount it on the console so you dont have to go to the motor and pull the pin down

BB's deal is slick. Makes more sense for a tiller than the hydro and would be a ton cheaper to make/buy. The worst part of pulling the pin is turning around and bending over to reach it. But its still not as bad as it sounds either. Now if I could get Crews to send his to me since it don't fit his motor anyway I'd be happy. I ain't got BB's shop skilz. :lol:

Post Re: reverse
It works alright! Some things are just a pain about it. IM gunna move that bolt (in the reverse plate) to the back side of the gizmo. See it interferes with that stainless bolt right below it.

Aluminum against aluminum=wear. And since i have some parts that touch each other to lower the fork, i have an idea on using a certain kind of material that wont need any kind of lube.

And there is one other thing i dont want to explain. But im working on it.

How you got the lever mounted to the handle? You find a lever to fit the 1.5" dia. handle or make something?

Pretty neat there. To make one Hyraulice would be awesome. But I doubt you will have anything that can pull the pin that far. I never seen it in person, but this looks pretty damned good. Hunter had told me about it and this will make alot of PD guys "faster at their FPR"
