What hydraulic side link are you using for a Kubota B2601?
I'm adding Top&Tilt and found the appropriate hydraulic top link at Summit, but they didn't know what side link to provide.
The side link extends roughly 14"-18" but not finding anything online that is close to that range.
Any advice on what particular side link to use, or what range would be appropriate?

A 4" stroke is perfect if the unit is built right and provides an equal amount of tilt angle to both sides and has the correct angles for the clevises on each end. Very few if any off the shelf units are though.

Curious as to what Summit has recommended for the top link over all working range. :unsure:

That is the same as what I recommend. So at least your top link will have the optimum working range. (y)

You will still need to grind down the tractor end ball swivel width. Std cat 1 ends are 1 3/4" wide.
The B series tractors take a 1 9/16" wide ball swivel.

Not that big of a deal, but it still needs to be done and is not a straight from the box installation as they indicate. :(
