Anyone have one? I was going to assemble one from parts and saw them on Amazon (CDN money)

I can take a few pictures, no problems so far and does not sag down.

If I was to buy one of these could I just plumb a valve to the power beyond port in my loader valve? And then does this valve that I just plumbed in drain into the sump, like the loader valve? As an aside, even though I don't have one of these Vevor cylinders I do have a Vevor submersible well pump, sausage stuffer, and vacuum sealer. All 3 perform very well, I am impressed with the quality.

I got mine from Princes Auto. Can’t comment on price but it has worked well for at least 8 yrs now. (They still do mail order). They used to make there hydraulics in Canada, not sure if that is still true.

You would need to install a control valve on the power beyond line from the loader valve and then feed the discharge port of the new valve, to wherever the power beyond goes to now, to complete the circuit. Does your tractor have a rear remote? Or can you get a kit?

Princess Auto has them on sale (minus the hoses) By the time I buy all the fittings and assemble it myself it's more money than the completed Vevor one and wouldn't have the leak down valve.

I'll have to check where the PA cylinder is made, might be better for longevity.

My tractor does not have a rear remote and I don't plan to get one. It seems like I just need a two way valve to extend or retract the top link cylinder and then tee the discharge into the power beyond line coming from my loader valve.

To control a cylinder or an hydraulic motor, you need a control valve.

Mine hasn't been worked hard yet.
Just installed it.
Haven't used it enough to know if it needs restrictors for the flow yet.

It's hooked into one of the rear remotes.

No issues so far.

I’ve got a Vevor hydraulic top link, and honestly, for the price, it’s been solid so far. Fit and finish aren’t premium, but it works as advertised. I did have one question about fittings, and vevor customer service actually replied pretty quickly with the info I needed, which was a nice surprise.

Vevor has them for $145, right now
Thanks, free shipping too. I bought a Spare Parts Holland one 2yrs ago and it crapped out last week. Cylinder goes out, but not in. Called 3 repair places who all said 2-350 to repair. Hopefully the vevor one lasts longer

Mine is from Spare Parts Holland and I've never been able to get it to stop leaking, lol. Let us know how the Vevor works for you!

Mine leaks so I'm sending it back. I'm just not interested in messing around with junk products. The whole banjo bolt and copper washer just seems doomed to fail. I've never seen that approach used for anything over a few hundred PSI.

The Deere top link is 3x the price, but I know it will work, and all the hydraulic connections are ORB or ORFS which are always leak free.

Mine never leaked. It just got slower and slower on the return side to the point now it moves about 1/8" each time you pull the lever. Probably just a seal or something, but im not gonna mess with it.

The mail man delivered the Veror Hyd top link this afternoon.

I fitted it to the Hurlimann with the 7' scrape blade. Then went out to see about "lowering" an old maple stump.

The hydro unit is every bit as stiff as the original threaded top link. So I guess I'm happy so far.

Big thing is that the hydraulic fittings on the B2601 remotes are "baby size". Now I'm going to need to order out another one of these hydro top links and get some adaptors to size down the hoses to fit the Kubota's quick couples! ;-)

getting old gives me an excuse to be lazy!

Looks good ! I added one for my box blade .. made all the difference in the world.. highly recommend for any applications! I run it off closed center remote . Other wise pilot operated check valve is needed to hold the load ..
