Does anyone have a 38 lightning on a 9k hoist. Kept my 00-35 on for years no problem even in storms ect. This is a 07 38, from what I can see aprox 3 - 400 lbs dif?

Just curious Joe

wouldn't the added pontoon up the 9k rating or are you saying your 9K came with three pontoons?

That sounds more like it.

My 10k lift has 2 of the same. I added a 3rd tank, 24"dia x 20' for an extra 2k capacity

In the center. Our marine was cutting up old and abanded lifts last winter, so I picked up a HH tank and all the mounting brackets. I don't have a pic of the 3rd tank installed, but it bolted right in. BTW, my lift is a Galva Lift.
