Others have stated (and I concur) that the hydro pump on a C is modest at best. When used for articulating a 3pt they either lift well for short lift stroke, or only light loads with a stroke of 15-18 inches. Putting a cylinder on the hitch results in similar issues. If large enough to do the job, they are slow slow slow. If small enough to move swiftly, they are wimpy.
A solution may be to use a upper cross shaft with arms that have multiple holes at differing lengths from the anchor point. This would allow the hitch to be adjusted to be powerful and limited in lift height, or long in lift and weak. (or inbetween if several holes were drilled. Tie rod ends from line haul trucks are great on the top of the lift links.
I hope this helps.
