I have heard some people say to steer clear of Teco lifts, anybody have any firsthand knowledge of problems or downfalls? I have a 93 GMC Topkick with a 70' rear mounted Teco lift. Had to replace my pistol grip valve body in the bucket and the boom actually sheared a bolt which held the hinge arms to the cylinder which seemed pretty unsafe until it was fixed. Other than that it has been a good unit(around 11000 hrs).
