Cylinder for Fred Cain Scissor lift

Had to reread your message a few times, you mean a hyd top link would work in that spot? You can't use a hyd toplink cyl _with_ the sissors lift, as it connects directly to the tractor - it doesn't use a top link at all.

A Fred Cain scissor lift can be used with a fixed toplink, hydraulic toplink and/or a hydraulic cylinder with clevis ends and 1" pins. In the picture you can see the piece that mounts on the lower lift arms can be turned around for use with a toplink.

They won't work with a hyd top link afixxed to the tractor tho, is what I was getting at.

The toplink (fixed or hyd) would be used in place of the hyd cylinder, not as one normally does on the tractor itself as the actual top link.

Pretty simple machine, with a lot of different agngle designs to it. Wish they had made the bottom 2 pegs screw-in, could put small forks on it & have a forklift - suppose that opens up a whole can of worms as to people overloading it.
