Could you post the part numbers for all the things you used, so others could replicate the build?- Awesomeness

The correct oil is from aircraft, and is colored red. So this is expected. This is true, because for the hydraulics it's a piece of cake to lift that much weight, even at a disadvantage.- Awesomeness

Unrelated to your problem, but there is supposed to be a safety chain too. The spare tire has the black ratchet strap thing, and a safety chain that goes through the wheel. I just mention it, in case yours doesn't have one, and you didn't know you were missing it.- Awesomeness

I think there's [at least] one in the cylinder too. Otherwise, if you blew a line, it couldn't save you. So there has to be something in the cylinder itself.- Awesomeness

Nah, it should essentially last forever unless you physically break it. It's essentially just a brass "sponge", so if fluid gets in it it will just drain back out over time.- Awesomeness
