I have a similar pump on my 2001 Ford 4x4 off road supercab that I mounted a bale mover/bale forks on back. It will pick up 1500# round bales and I have hauled them through the pasture up to a half mile. Bale mover operates with a 2" cylinder as I recall. No problem picking up, holding, and letting down those big bales. With that much weight the back end drops down but I still have control with the front tires to steer it.
👍👍 It's a solid pump. Definitely a good design

I generally like TorkLift and I have gotten other hitches from them before for different vehicles. The hitch they sent for the F150 Lightning came in 3 pieces: the cross bar and two side plates to join the crossbar to the frame. The plates were not designed to accommodate the frunk and the radiator assembly below it. I took a picture when I installed the Draw-Tite 65067 which does fit. It shows the side plate TorkLift said would fit versus the Draw-Tite. The holes align at the top but the TorkLift plate doesn't allow the crossbar to go below the radiator, etc. The TorkLift side plate is being held up against the side plate of the Draw-Tite to show the difference. (Draw-Tite is just one big welded piece vs the 3 pieces for TorkLift.) The TorkLift plate is just too small unfortunately.

If you find another hitch besides Draw-Tite that fits, definitely let folks know.
heres an email I got from TorkLift today. Hopefully they did in fact fix the fitment issues.

Nice! Hopefully they got their design issues worked out. I am hoping they did so folks have more options to choose from for hitches. Please let everyone know how it works out.
