Having a proper hydro setup may be more beneficial over time.

You can also go 8 speed and add  the auxiliary oil resevior and pump and have dual hydraulics as i have done...

Just asking Eric why can’t you find a hydro side mount for this? I had a c141 that had a lift valve on the side to lift plow or blower.

I certainly could....

I just already have the aftermarket lever and hoses from another tractor. 

 

I'd like to use what I have on hand.

I'd like to see better pics of this. 

Can @pfrederi or someone else tell me how to find them?

 

Must be a manual of some sort?

@ebinmaine I believe you’re correct about there being a manual on adding hydraulic lift to a manual lift tractor. I may have one, but I thinking not. I’ll look tomorrow. Finding the implement spring might be a challenge, but as you know you can find the rest of the items needed to add a factor lift assembly. I’d start by soaking the rock shaft with the penetrating oil of your choice.

Luckily this one's been replaced by us when we did the build a few months ago. 

 

I'll need a hydro lift rockshaft  though...

@Ed Kennell you wouldn't happen to have one in your magic buckets?

EB just take some of that money you have squirreled away and buy another hydro Wheel Horse with the lift on it. You know you need just one more another one after that.

Sooner or later you'll have all the part to convert the lift on the C-121.

Man.... we've already got something like 15 here. I don't think I need a couple more.

You could sell a couple that isn't used much to make room, That is after you get the ones you need.
