That is a really hard question to answer. JD didn't specify lift capacity. Depending on what year the B is and what serial number the Power Lift is you might be able to get some specs from JD literature. You also might be able to make an estimate based on what integral JD implements were compatible with your B and the Power Lift. Such as cultivators and plows. If you are thinking of adding an aftermarket three point hitch to a Power Lift based rocker arm setup I suspect you will find that it is quite limited. Remember a Power lift is all up or all down. Also in many cases a Power-trol can be added in place of the Power Lift which will increase lift significantly. When JD announced the 800 series hitches for the 50, 60 & 70 tractors they only suggested that the 800 series hitches could also be used on the G as well but not the A & B. There were at least two reasons for this. 1.) The limited lift capacity even of the later A & B Power Trol and 2.) The fact that the pressed steel front frames of the late A's and B's were too light in comparison to the cast frame G to counter balance the rear lift capacity since front frame weights didn't arrive until the early numbered series. However, you will observe many 800 series hitches on the late A's and B's and used sensibly and safely they will perform adequately. However, I don't recall ever seeing an aftermarket three point hitch on a Power Lift equipped tractor.
