Handy Don 14,090 #27 Posted December 2, 2021 Interesting that to lift the rear hitch, the force goes from back to front and then back again! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don't remember why I think this. ... I'm under the impression the electric motor was meant for the mid hitch. It would be neat if it powered a clevis.

From where you took the picture, it looks like a sleeve hitch would work. A slot hitch would be even easier. If there is going to be a problem, I think it'd be the lever arm that sticks up where the cable attaches. Hope it works! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Howie 899 #34 Posted December 3, 2021 If the sleeve hitch is hooked up it will work. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sailman 1,299 #36 Posted December 4, 2021 Great deal on the package. Real cool with the electric lift! Considered adding the electric lift kit to my 416-8 but too much $$ and work installing. Have the hydro lift on my C-160 and C-120 so will live with the manual on the 416-8. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

23 Reo 229 #39 Posted December 4, 2021 I have a 69 Raider 12 with the electric lift. The seat pan has a relief to clear the rod. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
