I need to know how long of a hydro cylinder is on the planter for raising and lowering the unit.What I need to know is Bore size, Stroke, center to center measurement.


Thank You,

Standard 8" stroke agricultural hydraulic cylinder with one inch pins. 2.5" bore should lift it with a 2000 psi system. If the tractor has a lower pressure system, i would get a 3" bore cylinder to be safe if the planter has fertilizer hoppers.
