Ethernet Through 4 Twisted Pairs of Phone Wire?

What can I expect out of something like this? I'm about 260 pounds. Any of you ever use one mounted on something like this E350? I've only been on ones on heavier trucks in the 20-30k GVW class

You have the skills for working on it, but try it on for size first. A contractor had a similar one working the area for several years. Not much room left inside the vehicle for anything.

If I buy one it's never going to leave this mile stretch of road going past me. I'd be lucky if it sees 200 miles a year

It'll get your a** up to where you want it. I've used one several times. Just make sure you look at it REAL good, hydraulics and especially welds.

Yeah, I want to avoid leaky pigs. I've been through fixing them. Most times it's not worth it especially if someone's fingers have been in them. Too many guys replacing lines and not securing them right. They always get them made like 6 inches longer and they end up rubbing. I've been into regular 4 wheeled bucket lifts too. When they are old they can be real nightmares. Little to no service documentation on the controls, and non existant parts.

My buddy has one pretty much like that one only no extension. I made the sign of the cross whenever I used it.
