It's upside down! :) (Just in comparison to how I installed mine.) If the hoses are pointed down they are less likely to get snagged IMO. Obviously it works both ways though.;)

Nice, clean install.... Did you get it from CCM or Surplus Cemter?

Thanks! If I had put in on valve side down , the hoses would have rubbed on the PTO shield when it was in the proped up position. I got it from Surplus Center....I never could get anyone from CCM to order one for me (too busy). I was second guessing my order shortly after I had placed it, wondering,"do I really need this thing?".....I am so glad I got it. As you can see from the video link, it is VERY easy to hook up an implement. You can really make some small incremental adjustments with a steady hand. I have found no need to "bump" the lever. Works great along with the Imatch hitch!

Very nice!

The quick hitch and hydro top link seem like they're made for each other..
