The thread about the hydraulic top link has really got me interested in getting one. Especially since I just recently got a box blade. I talked with my JD dealer about one and he did not want to talk about it since JD doesn't make one and they do not carry Woods equipment. I have a FEL with a joystick. My 2 SCVs have push/pull couplers. What all is required to add the hydraulic top link if I use the FEL joystick? Do I just disconnect the rollback and dump hoses for the FEL and connect the top link hoses? On the rockshaft bracket there is slot for a top link control (wonder why JD doesn't sell the hydraulic top link), what would be required to add a control here instead of using the joystick? Do I need another valve? What is involved in adding another SCV? I can have 3 SCVs. I'm not sure what size top link to get, my 3pt lift capacity is 3374# at 24". Even though it is green, not orange or blue, can any of you pros help me with this?
Thanks
