Goldnboy 927 #28 Posted September 19 You can also go 8 speed and add the auxiliary oil resevior and pump and have dual hydraulics as i have done... 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Retired Wrencher 5,469 #29 Posted September 19 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. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

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. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rock Shaft Mount for non standard control valve??? 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?

c-series don 8,737 #33 Posted October 10 @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. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'll need a hydro lift rockshaft though... @Ed Kennell you wouldn't happen to have one in your magic buckets? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lee1977 6,682 #39 Posted October 10 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. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lee1977 6,682 #41 Posted October 10 You could sell a couple that isn't used much to make room, That is after you get the ones you need. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
