Ok , here's the zinger. Do you have an adapter for the top of the Sucker Rod Extension that I could attach a cable or chain for my existing Windmill. Also what is the stroke length since the standard Areomotor has TWO settings for stroke length. Sorry there's always one guy with a crazy question.

Thanks for reaching out. We do NOT have any kind of adapter for this type of connection. While we do have many customers that successfully customize their system in this manner, we have many that try and end up breaking their Simple Pump. Due to this, we do not provide adapters that facilitate it, and we actually can no longer warranty the system if it is modified to be used in this manner. We just have no control over the stroke or use of the system with these modifications and if not done correctly it can cause some major issues for the pump. This being said, there are many customers out there that have done this modification correctly and use it in the manner you are suggesting!
This being said, the threads on the end of the lift rod are 5/16-18, the threads on the end of the pump rod are LH 1/2-13 and the stroke of the pump is 9.75"!

@@SimplePump Totally understand about the warrantee and realize that it is not designed for this type of operation and is outside of normal parameters.
