Top and Tilt on the left side?

   / Top and Tilt on the left side? #11  
There is/was a TBN member here who had a tilt cylinder on both left and right sides.

Is there value to do this? I have thought about it a few times.
Maybe not the member that @von-mil was thinking of but I have dual tilt cylinders. I use a Land-Pride back blade extensively for "landscaping" and the dual cylinders allow me to easily change the angle to +/-15 degrees. This is great for ditches and swales and also allows me to break up my damned clay "soil" with the corner of the blade.

I believe the reason he gave for a tilt cylinder on each side was so that if he raised both sides up fully, he could be assured that the attached implement was perfectly level. Then the 3PH could be raised and lowered as desired.

Sounds reasonable. Particularly when The blade does not have a built-in tilt feature.
