I am in the process now of getting rid of the old cylinder that somebody rigged up and I was really considering going to a single B cylinder. Some people have brought to my attention that a single B cylinder may not have quite enough to lift heavier implements on my 3-point. I guess my other two options are to possibly go with 2 B cylinders which would require me to fab up two new brackets on the rocker shaft to attach to or just go with a single CA cylinder. Does any one have any insight as to what it would take to make a CA cylinder fit on a B tractor? Thanks in advance for any input.

I think somebody recently posted a picture of a CA cylinder on a B. It might have been a Snap Couple B.?????

A single cylinder on My C will lift enough to lift the front wheels. if your implement is heavery than that you might need a bigger tractor.

My Snap Coupler B has a CA cylinder on it. If AC thought it needed a CA cylinder I guess I'd assume a CA cylinder would work well for a 3pt conversion as well.

Would you happen to have any pictures you could share? The 3-point is homemade but it still attached to the pin on the frame and the arms on the rocker shaft the same as original (I believe). I was hoping to find out if a CA cylinder would mount up to my setup without any modifications. If not, how much work I'm looking at.

Interesting. I've heard some say it will not lift anything more than a light duty blade very well and other said they have an enormous amount of lift capability for being so small. |

Yeah, that was on one of my previous threads. I was having a lot of hydraulic issues when I first bought the tractor but I think I'm slowly getting it straightened out. When I first got it, I was having problems with the pump and an aftermarket cylinder that was rigged up to fit that was also leaking very badly. I found a used pump that looks to be in good condition and now I'm trying to replace the cylinder that is a little closer to the original and that will do what I need it to do. |
