The box blade finally came in from woods and I got it picked up yesterday morning. Next step is to put the hydraulic top link on and put it to work.

Dang, that box blade looks stout. How many lbs? 66" or 72" wide?

Where did you get your hydraulic top link from? I'm still waiting on a backorder from surplus center for mine.

Tractor supply site is acting up, but, look for cylinder 6003

It's the woods bss72p, listed at 551 lbs.

I got the TSC 6003 top link and 67852 hose kit, I used a 10% coupon that expired a few months ago and it took it fine. Came out to $302 with tax and delivery and as delivered 3 days after ordering, I've noticed that when they are out of stock the entire listing disappears from the site. I flipped the entire check valve and tube assembly to the implement end since it seems like it would have hit the fuel tank in the direction it came, I also turned the block to the side to help with hose routing. I'm hoping to get it installed and tested tonight, will post some pictures when it's set.

Yeah thanks midnite, I did buy the 6003 from surplus center already ($50 cheaper than tractor supply) but just waiting on the backorder. They seem to think it will arrive/ship in another couple days.

Thanks zeppelin, would definitely love to see pics of how you set it up!

Wow. I just looked again and *every place* is out of the 6003 all of a sudden.. Tractor Supply just had some 3 days ago.

Even with the thing flipped it is a bit too close for comfort, as long as it is not retracted more than it is that is the clearance with the 3pt all the way up. I think I may try flipping the entire link so the hoses are on the bottom.

Thanks a lot! So, the hoses can't go to the sides, eh? It does kinda seem like they would be better on the bottom side of the cylinder. Then again, if it doesn't hit the fuel tank as-is, why worry? If they were flipped to the bottom side, do you think you could still use the flimsy little support rod to hold the top link up, if you didn't have anything attached to the 3-pt?

Finally, is there any reason to choose remote A vs remote B for using the top link? I'm not knowledgeable on how the ck3510se factory remotes are set up, or if they are at all different in operation.

Only top or bottom for hoses on that since one side is "fixed". The one we all want is the fitrite and I believe the hoses are on the side looking at the pictures. I'm not sure that support rod will help much either way as the hydraulic top link is much thicker, I will probably just put a bungee around it if I need to. I'm not sure if hoses down will be in the way of the pto but since the only pto implement I have so far is the flail and I would have to put the manual top link back on for that as it needs both pairs of remotes it won't be an issue for now. Still debating about getting the summit hydraulic multiplier or even a diverter to try and have 3 ports in the end.

The left port there is the "detent" port, I find that it has a bit smoother control as you can slightly open the valve and let it move slowly. The other port is a standard spring center and without getting a restriction valve or something like that is pretty jerky.
