I bought a Cross for my C and I have one word....don't. I have kicked myself ever since I put this thing on. I honestly cannot say whether the ones for the H or M would be better, but I can honestly tell you the one for the C/Super C is a pile. It uses the arms that go up to the rockshafts and I broke one of those the first 15 minutes I used it after struggling to get it to mount up. They say you can leave the drawbar in place, but mine would not mount with the drawbar in any of the factory positions, and ended up having to leave the bolts out of the drawbar mount to allow it to raise up enough to mount the 3 point. Also, it does not provide enough travel. If you get it where it raises high enough it will not lower enough. I definetely am not happy with the Cross unit and wish I had sprung for the Saginaw unit. I currently have the 3 point removed, and have mixed feelings about ever putting it back on. One of the slickest 3 point setups I ever saw on a C was homemade. Not sure how well it worked, but it looked factory.
