I talked to some of our other Experts here and they said some semi trucks have a 24V to 12V converter built-in. This is not always the case so in order to get the HydraStar Electric Over Hydraulic Actuator, part # HBA-10 or any other 12V accessory to work you will need a converter.

We do not offer a converter but we were able to Google it and found they are available. The first thing I would do though is check the truck system out and see if it has a converter.
