That cylinder sucking in can pull about 8000 lbs if tractor hydraulic pressure is 2000 lbs.
If the boom is 6 ft long you will loose about 3/4ths of the lift cause of the type of leverage design on the that boom.So it may lift a ton the way it is. But I doubt it.
If you move the cylinder to the other side of the pivot point and push up on the lever the cylinder can produce about 12000 lbs of lift with 2000lbs of hydraulic pressure. Then subtracting for leverage you might lift 5000 lbs or so if you attach the cylinder about 2 to 3 feet from the pivot point.
I am not an engineer just a farmer engineer so your proformace may vary. I give no guarantees.
5000 lbs may also be about all you want on that boom without failure occuring.
