Look at this link, get the asked for dimension and use that dimension to determine what the mid stroke of the unit should be plus or minus a fraction of an inch.
I recommend a cat 1-2 top link with a 2 1/2" dia cylinder with a 1 1/2" dia rod with a working length of 23 1/4- 35 1/4".
Look at the link, get the pin-pin distance asked for and see what you really need.

Make sure that the toplink that you buy has a stop valve on it. This keeps the piston from leaking down.

i got mine from my local kioti dealer. i like supporting them. want them to stay open..... i also purchased mt 3rd function kit from them, even though they had them cheaper online. we still need to keep the brick and mortar stores open. you could look at Michiganiron also, they post on this site and are helpful people

On a serious note, One thing to look at is the tractor side of your top link to make sure it’s cat 2 also. Many of the Kiotis of that size use a cat 1 on the tractor side. So if you were to order one from somewhere that was a cat 2 on both ends it will more than likely not fit the tractor side.

I bought one of these in Cat 1. No issues. I don't plan on running Cat 2 so I'm just reducing the lowers. At some point I'm going to narrow the lower arm joints and use a Cat 1 Quick Hitch. The Cat 2 lower arm ends is unfortunate.

My ROPS is always in the down position and has a toolbox mounted on it. Under that I installed this simple hook for holding up the the top link when not in use and when swapping out implements.
