I just ordered a set, hopefully the toplink will work. Once I receive them I will let you know.

Hopefully? Why wouldn't it?

Because the their website says on some tractors anew longer top link may be needed .

I just got mine delivered last night, and tried it out today. easy to install .

Toplink was too short to reach my Woods mower, it barely reached the box blade . I went to town, 2 dealers and 2 tractor supply stores later no extra long top links to be found

I called Greenwell manufacturing to see what I needed to to for a return. They had an extra long toplink they could ship at their cost plus shipping. So I paid another $38.50. (this is getting more costly than I planned ). So I am back to waiting for the UPS delivery.

Wow Your top link must have already been stretched to the max. My top link used to pretty much always be as short as it would go. Now with the PECS it is still less than half way.

I think it has to do with the Woods equipment, no problems with my old rotary mower. The toplink is as best as I can tell standard lenght (31" fully extended)

After instaling the longer toplink I am very happy with the Easy Changer, cuts my time to change attachments way down. Works Great.

Not sure what the right place for this suggestion is so I'll try here since I just encoutered the problem while ordering Pat's system today.

On the online order forms for products that can be ordered through TBN (e.g. just ordered Pat's today and the Tiltmeter a few days ago), one cannot pick a Canadian province e.g. Ontario. You can't leave the "State" field blank either to include the province in another address line.

Each of the above companies were willing to ship to Canada when I contacted them by email for a nominal addition to their regular shipping charge.

I preferred to order the products thorugh TBN so that I could support the site. I basically had to pick a fake state and include a note with my shipping address in the order.

Most U.S. and Canadian companies that do business on line are generally more than happy to ship to customers in the other country. I suggest that if possible that you could list the Canadian shipping cost on each order form and list the Canadian provinces under "State/Province" to make it easier.

Lord knows (at least my wife does!) that I have spent enough money on the last two orders and so I will likely not be buying anything online soon... but it would be nice if this could get fixed for the next guy.

Thanks for carrying these great products through TBN!

Thanks for the feedback. We will be adding the international shipping option soon.

I think the Pat's Easy Change System is absolutely the most useful implement I have for my tractor. It has worked like a champ ever since I bought mine. Wouldn't do without it. 45er
