So far I'm not a happy camper. Almost a week and no response except an e-mail saying they'll notify me when it ships. Their website doesn't tell you if it's in stock or out of stock. I tried to call before ordering and couldn't get through to a human. So I sent an e-mail and hope for a reply.

As I recall, it was about 4-5 days before I got a shipping notification.

This what I got back. If I'd known I'd probably go elsewhere. Still not happy.
Hello,
Our website doesn’t give stock status, and this product is ordered on demand from A&I. Once it arrives to us, we will ship it immediately.
Thanks,
Eric

11 days since ordering and still waiting.
I have searched and no one seems to have any in stock. I guess I'm going to have to build my own.

Finally came in stock and received it. Just have to get hoses and quick connects.

Finally.... sorry you had to wait for so long.
I was using the link as it came (ball link at top), but I was afraid it was going to put too much stress on just the side of the lift arm. I finally got around to cutting off the ball end and making the "U" type mount. Here's a couple of pics just before welding, and the final all painted.

I got mine hooked up and was happy. Until it started leaking from the bottom 90 degree fitting. The crush washer didn't work, and the rubber O ring isn't up too the job. I need to get another crush washer.

Mine did the same thing. I ended up getting #6 ORB to 3/8" BSPT adapters from discount hydraulics. They were both #6 male, one was 3/8" BSPT female, the other 3/8" BSPT male. Also a pack of the O-rings that fit the #6.
The hoses mounted directly to the fittings, the ORB type sealed first try onto the cylinder. I think the total cost including shipping was around $25.
No matter what I tried with the fittings that came with the cylinder, they still leaked. I tried a couple of thicker sealing washers and it still leaked.
If you need the part numbers for the adapters, let me know and I can dig them up.
Not sure which hoses you got or which fittings are on them.... I got mine as a set from Agri-Store.
