Ok mtnviewranch bear with me, Im still me just changed my handle (formerly 4105deere). Really ready to get htl and side link. The one you have for my new 7040 (gettn goosebumps) will be just what I need right?

Self canceling.
Zebrafive, Do you have a link to the hydraulic that you want to use? The 20"-30" top link that I am talking about is built for the Kubota M7040. Your tractor is different, You only have a single hole to mount to. The M series have 3 holes to choose from. The top link mount on the tractor is completely different than yours. Where you can probably get away with the Surplus cylinder, 4105deere may very well have a problem with it.
Surplus Center item number 9-7261-12
Yes my tractor only has one postion for the tractor end of the link.
So in your post #4, were you refering to me or 4105deere? I was trying to understand why you thought being able to extend longer than std link would be a problem? Just retract it too long![]()
No, post # 4 was for you. When you can't retract far enough, there are many times when the implement will hit the dirt when you don't want it to and you can't use the hydraulic top link to pick the tail end up any higher because the top link is collapsed all the way. This is common when in rough terrain or when loading onto a trailer. I think that the ideal configuration is to have the hydraulic at mid stroke when the implement is parallel with the ground that the tractor is on. In most cases it seems to work out best to match as close as possible to the OEM top link. If item # 9-7261-12 allows you to be collapsed as short or shorter than your OEM top link, then you would be good to go.
