Anyone used a Marine Tilt and Trim unit for a Front or Rear equipment lift

[kraftymate]

Anyone used a Marine Tilt and Trim unit for a Front or Rear equipment lift, like to lift a plow blade or a tiller or snow plow, etc you get the idea?
I would like to mount one on my Garden Tractor as they are ALOT LESS than a tractor hitch.

Thanks a bunch guys!!!!!!!!

how much weight do you plan to lift with it? its funny those are the exact same units as gm uses to apply a park brake on a motor home.

The push blade and drag do not weigh more than 100 lbs, and the T&T units I have seen will lift a 200 lb or more motor.
What do they call the unit on the motor home? I have never heard of them.

Thanks

auto apply park brake motor. I had a 24' regul "fun" boat and it had the exact same motor on it but it was an inboard motor so maybe what you are talking about is something different. if it works it should be pretty easy to set up, 12 volts and some lines. mounting position might be hard to find but its posible just check this out
