Buying Advice on Hydraulic links

[ovrszd]

I use a hyd top link on my Ford. TnT on my Kubota. A tractor without either is very limited. Both is the way to go if your tractor can support them.

Post pics of your setup when you are done.

I think Fit Rite is quoting 30 weeks for delivery now… so that’s not an option. Hope to have a top link in the next 6 weeks for some road work

The top link is standard and easy to find. The tilt link is neither of those.

I'd buy a generic top link and order a tilt link from Fit Rite.

I mean the HYD top link. Of course it has a standard top link. I won’t wait 30 weeks for a HYD top link when others can ship tomorrow.

I decided to add a DPCV top link to my Ford. I ordered one thru Amazon. $270-ish. Ordered it yesterday. Will get it Friday.

I’ve been looking at a crank version for one side of my height adjustment. Much cheaper and I don’t need to do it often, just often enough that a turnbuckle is a pita

Beenvenue - a shame we are so far apart. I was given a hand crank unit. Never used it. I would give it to you. I think this may be what you are looking for.

I've bookmarked this, just haven't got around to ordering one.

I'm getting 2 remotes regardless of which model I get. They are standard on the T494 and will get added to a 4820. Sorry for the confusion, I knew the OEM didn't make them, but a good dealer can source parts cheaper than an individual and installation for an expert is faster and better (I know my limits).

Now I need to figure out exactly which links will fit.

If you plan to use a hydraulic top link and/or a hydraulic side link, get 3 rear remotes if possible. You'll wish you had.

Do tell? Why? One for up/down, one for side to side....do I need one for paint the fence?

The T494 is already set up for the 3rd function, so you don't lose one if you jury rig it..

What am I missing?
