Farmall Cub

I began assembly and installation of the pneumatic lift-all for my 1945 B Farmall this weekend. The lift cylinder and control valve are together and the valve even got mounted and plumbed into the pressure (manifold) valve. I'm glad to finally get started on this project; I've been accumulating parts for 17 years.

Keep us informed. What uses are you planning or just "having" it? Years ago I drove an A for a while that had one. I was not impressed but I do understand a person wanting one. Good luck. Vern

Keep going...we're watching.

I have a set of B236 cultivators and a B-99 planter attachment set up to use with the lift.
I plan on planting and cultivating sweet corn next Spring.

Thats awsome!

I would like to see pics of your implements.
Especially when you have them all mounted up on your tractor!

I have a BN, and the exhaust manifold makes me believe it (might have) had the exhaust lift contraption on it at one time!

At the time I bought my B, I knew nothing of a Pneumatic Lift. While disassembling the B, I removed remnants of a lift from it; rusted out manifold with a pressure valve in it and a partial control rod assembly and rockshaft. I don't know what implements were used with it.

Despite the heat and humidity, I managed to get the lift-all cylinder on the B Farmall today.
