Were there different sized exhaust lifts? I've seen a few pictures of them mounted in different configurations on various Farmall models, but I know next to nothing of 'em. I have one that came with an 'A'(looks like any mounting points are long gone, (so, what else is new!?)). Still trying to get the control valve on the exhaust manifold unfrozen, getting the out carbon wasn't too much of an effort, but getting all the heavy rust out from inside has been a bear

I look here once in a while.

RZ gave a pretty good short explanation. As far as I know, the only tractors to ever have such a system were the A/B/BN series. The basic parts of all the systems were all the same size. They were mostly used with ground working equipment -- plows, cultivators, etc. It was also used with a highway mower on the IA.

I once saw a picture of a bulldozer blade on a B that was lifted with 2 of the 7" lift cylinders. It was on a WWII vintage soil conservation project and probably a one off hand built blade.

What exactly is a EXHAUST LIFT?

It is similar to a one-way hydraulic cylinder in operation. Instead of using oil to move the ram, exhaust from the engine is used to fill the expansion chamber and move the ram outward, and in turn move or raise the attached implement. There is a manually operated butterfly valve between the exhaust manifold and the collection tube to the muffler that redirects the exhaust into the lift mechanism. Sort of a Rube Goldberg arrangement, picture the way a syringe operates only in reverse, as fluid is forced into the needle end, the plunger will come out of the syringe due to icreased pressure. I don't think it would raise a fully loaded bucket or anything near that, but for resetting a cultivator, tiller or plow at the end of each crop row, it would sure beat using the same arm each time regardless of how the lift springs or counterbalance is set.

All I've ever seen or heard about were the ones used on the A, B, & BN which were all the same size. Real early ones had brass cylinders according to an article in Red Power by Jim Becker.
Jim is usually on the ATIS Farmall board, it would an interesting question to ask him.
