Liftgate hydraulic hose burst, how to replace it fast

[@JColb]

This video just saved me a few hundred, thanks my guy

Thanks I was able to fix my lift gate myself while saving hundreds

A sharp screw inside my truck's TommyGate rubbed aginst the hydraulic hose and severed it eventually and leaked all over the place!

I’ve been working with hydraulics for the past 3 months, and I found a truck with a lift gate for sale, and the lift gate leaks when it is in operation…seeing this just motivates me to buy it and fix it. I primarily need the lift gate to load my motorcycles up.

If it’s just a hose, it won’t be that expensive either. Couple of wrenches and some refilling of the reservoir and done. Good luck!

My hydraulic line for my eclipse is leaking by the passenger side trunk

[@snowman374th]

So here's my story. I'm dealing with a headache myself. I got a lot more of them. $40 bucks aye.. I guess I have that to look forward to. Damn.. I got like 11 or 12 to fix. Dry rotted. Wrecker bed. Just built. Almost finished. Well I think.. Boom = Up down. In and out. 2 Winches. Wheel Lift = Up down In and out.

So just get a replacement house and fill the tank to the correct level? Do you need to bleed the lines like a car?

[@thetransporterboss]

Yes get a replacement and definitely bleed the air out. And yep top up to correct level.

[@bolgert911]

@@thetransporterboss thanks for responding didn't expect that. Have a mini digger out here and the hose burst on the end hoping it can be recrimped. No sure how to bleed it tho.

[@austinsanchez7652]
