Hey I am wondering if there is any advantage to going with FitRite hydraulic top link and waiting 10 weeks vs. buying this WR Long from Messicks? The price seems to be the same.

Not sure what the diameter is of the cylinder and rod, and what the stroke is of the one from Messicks, maybe they could tell me if I asked?

If indeed Messicks is selling you a top link built by WR Long, then it is very similar to my Fit Rite unit. Just not quite as refined on the exterior of the cylinder and it will be black, not Kubota grey. It has a 9" stroke. How long are the hoses, 36"? Mine are 30" & 36".
Are those 90s flow restrictors, they should be. It looks like the tractor end has a floating reducer bushing, mine is pressed in. Rod end is floating as it should be.

If you can't wait, then get the RW Long unit, the next best unit available. ;)

There is a used top link for an M7060 made by Fit Rite in the classified section:

That is like new, I just refurbished it for that customer. He changed to a different tractor size.
