Just added a Hydralift to my 2004 coach. Was pretty easy one day project. Hardest part was cutting the notches out of the lower part of the engine door but after a few geometric calculations and aligning the angle of closure, I used my saber saw and managed to cut just once and now I have two pieces that could easily be glassed back in if I were to take the lift off the back.
Was able to just bolt the lift to the existing frame mounts for the 20,000 lb trailer hitch that was bolted up to the frame that I removed and used the same bolt holes to mount the hydralift. No welding required
