Tilt Cylinder

[gilbertmsg]

Have a CK20 and would like to add tilt cylinder to the 3 point hitch. Have any of you guys done this and if so what length hydraluic cylinder did you use. Also was it a single action or double action cylinder. I have a little angle to my drive and hate getting off tractor to adjust.

Thanks!!

search for tnt or top n tilt or hydraulic toplink. Much has been discussed. I'm using what came with a hydraulic 3ph fork lift that I bought. It has no check valves. Not sure how long it is. I'd guess something like 14 - 20 inches, max travels. It works. But, many buy the CCM one. They supply specifically for your model tractor.

It will work out best for you to use a 2" bore x 4" stroke cylinder. Cut off the ends and then cut off the ends of your stationary side link (usually the left side) and weld them to the cylinder. You'll be all set.

Good luck

This is a site that makes the cylinders with the check valve system. Open and close your link and see what matches up as far as distance. This is CCM as Gittyup mentioned. It would replace the hand crank link on the right side.
