Only issue is two of my hydro lines from the pump don't have enough slack to place the motor behind the carpet at the correct angle. I rigged it up temporarily until I have the time and patience to deal with that issue.

I'll also have to locate the source of the hydraulic leak which I only assume exists.
This is very good news!

So guys - re the "European through the trunk method", where can I get info on that?
