mario j,

I am assuming you are in the metal recycling business or is it paper or other?

In a Linde H20T or CT the only difference is the tire style - the C indicates the unit is fitted with press on solid (aka cushion tires). As I recall this unit has a base rating of 4500 lb. at 2" load center and shares common components with the 3500 lb lift model.
My knowledge of your business (used to sell Lindes) there are two important features of your business taht you are looking at the wrong truck. These features are the units operate on broken up concrete & the operator has no idea what teh loads way - so they lift anything they can until the rear tires come off the ground (called over loading that equals big repair cost bills ).

My suggestion and advise is buy a truck with solid pneumatic tires on all 4 tires; secondly look for a 5000lb or 6000 lb lift most recyclers I've dealt with are comfortable with this size. If you are handling junk cars look for something much bigger in capacity unit like a 12 to 15k lift with long forks (72" plus) - you'll be happier.
