I bought a Saginaw 3 point hitch for my Super C and it had a bypass block that allowed you to connect a valve and remote hydraulics. I was very happy with the 3 point hitch but wasn't happy with the location of the valve (on the light bar) as it was awkward to be looking back and reaching forward to adjust at the same time. I replaced the single spool valve on the light bar with a dual spool valve that I bolted to the side of the tool box. This couldn't be a more ideal setup... the levers are very easy to reach as they are just under your right cheek (if you know what I mean). I then replaced the top link with a hydraulic cylinder and am very happy with the setup.
I have subsequently bought another bypass block on e-bay for my Super C. You can routinely find these blocks on ebay for about $50 (see link below).
As for how much they will lift... I think new the hydraulic pump would put out about 1200psi or so and with the Saginaw 3 point it will easily lift the front off the ground if the load is too heavy or lift the back off the ground if you push down on something.
