3 pt lift

dgoodman2 · Oct 14, 2019

The only real disadvantage of aftermarket 3 pt lifts is no way to control depth of a disk or such. You have no height control or preset. I had read about putting some type stop or collar on the cylinder. ? What is that called? What other contraptions have you guys come up with. ? Pics appreciated.

google hydraulic cylinder stroke control. they are spacers that clip on the cylinder rod to limit travel. they work good.

I see them. So do you just stack however many of them you need.

Can't you use a hydraulic valve with float?

Yes. That's all there is to it.

I use those stroke control colars on my 560 with aftermarket 3pt to keep fluffer and rotary corrigator at consistant level. they work good but on mine I needed to add a big washer on the top end to keep from haveing them pushed off the cylinder. depends upon your setup. Yes just put on as many as you need to get correct depth, they are easy to add or remove
