Mounted vertically as you have it, perhaps all the load is on the hydraulic system??? I can't make out in the pictures if the factory Cub Cadet rockshaft is connected to the lift or there is a straight link from the lift cylinder to another connection point on the Sears rotating (rockshaft like) horizontal shaft? Maybe a couple of more photos to clarify this for me. Thanks for your post, Steve
