Just bought a 6' grader unit and figure a top and tilt would do wonders with it. Have been thinking about top and tilt for a long time actually, just never got around to it.

Seems there are a couple ways that I see to plumb it. Going from the power beyond port to a remote control valve, or adding the NH remote system itself. Most likely get the top and tilt from Tractor Hydraulic toplinks, Top-N-Tilt, Side link cylinders.

Have looked into it but never done it . If I did , would most likely go off P.B. port or look at another way than the N.H. rear remote . Although the N.H. rear remote would look " Factory " , what they want for the valve kit , you are 1/8 the way to a new tractor .:confused2:

P.S. Course something I have learned over the last 8+ years of owning my TC30 is that N.H. is way over priced on all their parts . Go buy a replacement turnbuckle on your 3 point lift arms . $58.06 just for the buckle . The Front bolt with the clevis is $65.72 while the back bolt is $35.94 = $159.72 just to replace 1 side . This is current price from Messick's and I only paid slightly less 3 years ago .
