JD Gator Power Bed Lift/Dump

[Skip Weltz]

My power unit to the bed dump came completely apart, 5 bolts stripped out and parts lost over acres. I'm looking for a replacement used one off a wrecked or parted out similar unit. I believe 1998 to 2004 are all the same (all have square headlights). I'd like the entire unit, shear bolts onto both ends and an electrical clip hook-up. Anyone have one or know where to get one, new are pricey! My cell is 510/719-3613

hit up ebay for a bm20701 for the original worm gear style. But if you have some minor fabrication skills you could stuff about any electric hyd cylinder in there for pretty reasonable price and not have to worry any longer about overloading a worm gear.
