Talk to me about the rear remote hydraulic valve type...mx5200

Yeah $337 cylinder and hoses delivered, everything went together super easy no bs.

Looking good. Easy now that it's done.

So I've been very happy with all aspects of this toplink setup but I just learned a lesson the hard way. I checked for interference but the hoses can still push the cylinder over enough that if it's mounted in the bottom hole on the tractor side and fully retracted, this can happen:





The raised boss of the cylinder contacted the cylinder mount on tractor. I now have the cylinder in the middle hole where this contact can't happen.

You can always flip it around and put the rod end on the tractor side.

Naw this is actually a 2/1 cylinder where the eye is 1.75" on the tractor end and 2" on the implement end. The tractor won't accept 2" width eye.
