These Linear Actuators are of OUTSTANDING quality!
I’ve been using these linear actuators for more than three years. I use it for a wheelchair lift, to get my wheelchairs in and out of my car, so reliability is of the utmost importance! It is by far the most reliable piece of equipment I’ve seen for this purpose. Customer support and technical help is superb! I’m buying my second unit, not because the first one in any way is deteriorating, but I’m using a faster model. (It’s actually the same unit, with different gearing.) Again, if I could give them 6 stars, I would!

Very solid build. Excellent drawings and documentation. Used for pickup truck handicap lift.
Installed on a lift that looks like a running board. The running board goes to the ground and up using a remote fob. A 300 pound person creates about 1000 pounds load on the linear actuator. My setup has a 1:3 ratio. I added 100 pounds to 900 to get to 1000 pounds. The 2000 pound actuator does the job with ease. I used the 8" stroke and added limit switches. This actuator replaces the obsolete HydraMotion cylinder S/N 11245. Motor marked PE270980 12VDC. Lift designed by Startrack(s) Lifts in Indiana in 2018.

Very cost effective versus OEM parts and has worked great!
My wife couldn't dump the manual box on our John Deere Gator. I added this and it works perfect!

Junk
I even called manufacturer and told them what kind of use this would get. They said it should be a good fit. Didn’t hold up junk. Sent back

Quality!!
Quality made item through and through. No grease???Waaat?? Powerful and smooth. The 16" is not an exact fit for a sundancer 420DA.p robably just get the 14"..will be "replace plug and play". I had to modify the bracket to get the Hatch to close completely but it lifts the Hatch smoothly and efficiently far better than the OEM with no grease to maintain. The most important thing with this is to measure the compressed length of your old unit not the extended length. I made that error. I would have returned this in order to 14 but I had already cut off the connector to place it into my electrical. 6 months later I'm still smiling every time I open the hatch

Works well
I purchased this to replace the engine hatch actuator in a 2003 380 Sea Ray. It fit this application perfect with no modifications. My only complaint is that the supplied connector on the leads is useless without the mating end. Progressive Automations should have supplied the mating end with pig tails to splice into the existing harness. Not a huge deal or deal breaker. Hopefully it will last as long as the original.

Larger than what It claims to be 2½ inches longer than advertised also really really slow movement! Other than that I can make it work with some major modifications
