3-Point Hitch top link

[marchanna]

Fit & finish. My units are not off the shelf units. Every unit is built by me to fit YOUR tractor, no matter if you have an 18 HP sub compact or a 660 HP AG tractor.

I do my best to provide the optimum working length possible for each and every tractor be it a top or side link. Yes off the shelf units work, sometimes the same as mine. But the majority of the time, the working lengths that are available with off the shelf products just work and do not provide the ideal amount of adjustment in both the retracted and extended directions.

Pictures are examples of various top & tilt sets built with 2", 2 1/2" & 3" dia cylinders for Kubota, Kioti, John Deere, New Holland.

Do you make a double-cylinder top link for extra long stroke? I need one for my cement mixer because the one it came with didn稚 have anywhere near enough stroke. I ended up using a winch instead, it it痴 a not a particularly good solution.

Get me the longest fully collapsed pin-pin distance that you can work with and I will tell you what I can provide based on that distance.

I値l have to take some measurements, but it would have to be at least 3x the collapsed length to achieve enough tip from the minimum upright position. Thanks.

Then I suggest that you forget about it. You are talking about a small super custom multi stage telescopic cylinder. I seriously doubt that you would want to pay for such a unit to be built.

I think it would probably be worth it, and would have bought something already, but I didn稚 want to pay $500 for something that ended up being a piece of crap. Not too many places stand by their workmanship. I don稚 mind paying for quality, do mind overpaying for something that痴 doesn稚 deliver on its promises.

Have you gotten any quotes yet for what you have in mind? My guess is that it would be more like $2,000+ for a multi-stage, telescoping, super-custom cylinder like that. That's if you can find someone willing to fabricate a one-off like that.

Exactly, my guess would be thousands and that is not counting the costs to find someone that would even be willing to build it. Most multi stage cylinders are larger. Not sure that any of those companies even have equipment small enough to build a small unit.

All I can say is yes it is possible, but you best have deep pockets that are very full and be willing to wait. I would not even consider it.

Good luck to marchanna if he pursues it.

Old thread but can someone tell me what size cylinder for a top link on a 2018 Kioti DK5510? Cat 2, length and approximate cost?
