If your 3pth is like a Worksaver brand, you only need one 3 or 3.5" cylinder. Two cylinders are fine but it is overkill especially on a H. In order to use the lifting capacity of two cylinders, the front of the H will have to be heavily weighted You can make your own hoses with "reusable" hydraulic fittings. Not sure where you get them anymore but I might look in some catalogs like Graingers. Alternatively, you might want to take your H down to the hose maker and he can give you the best layout and fittings. The hose will be the correct length. If you go single acting with one cylinder, you will only need one hose. Places like the Surplus Center in Lincoln, NE have good ready-made hoses at cheap prices. Some they make in standard increments and others are new surplus with random lengths. You might also want to consider getting the IH part that covers the hose(s) on the rear frame lid. Not necessary but adds a nice touch. My solutiion to cheap hoses is to collect discarded hoses, new or used, from auctions, friends, etc and have my local hose fabricator cut and install a new fitting at the cut.
