Hydraulic Top Link M9540

What did you folks end up using for an m9540 hydraulic top link? I've got an m5-111 I want a hydraulic top link for looks like it's a cat 1 at the tractor pin and cat 2 at the implement. I'm guessing I will want to find a 3-in cylinder in the 24 to 36 movement range

I took the easy route. Called Brian at Fit Rite and bought from him. This was in 2013. Received in three weeks or so.

Mine has a 3.5" cylinder with a 1.6" rod. No leaks or drips - never "leaks down" - been a really great addition for the eight years I've had it.

Instant gratification is great as long as you are satisfied with the quality received.

Really the only thing about it that is cat 1 is the tractor end pin size. It takes a full cat 2 sized ball swivel, larger dia ball swivel and 2" wide.

I typically provide a 23 1/4"- 35 1/4" working length similar to the left unit pictured.
My current lead times are almost 29 weeks.

Agristore has some units that are in stock, you just need to decide which one would work best for you.
Don't forget to get a reducer bushing for the tractor end.
