Harbor freight 20 ton press mod.

[@BradHedges]

I just bought one of these presses this afternoon - I've been putting it off for months, looking at all the vids online. This is the first "new" batch of info/suggestions I've seen. Good stuff - thanks!

Great Vajayo! Just got a commercial 20ton press but I know a lot of this info is going to be useful! Love the way you designed a small diameter press adapter from a grade 8 bolt!!!! Note: I saw someone just used tool draw liner to make up the space to take the play out but this is so much better.

When I bought my HF press 10 or 12 years ago , I simply tack welded shims in the top moving beam to take the play out ...

Awesome mods you did. I’ll be copying you as I hate the amount of slop these come with out of the box. I’ll also be adding the air/hydraulic ram that HF sells as well. These two mods together should make for a really handy tool. Thx for sharing

Good thinking, good work too... Thanks for sharing. I saw the modified jack valve handle... How did you do that?
