Telescoping draft links

[jackd]

THANK YOU GUYS!!! My dealer told me they (telescoping links) weren't available for the compacts (my case a 4710), and after seeing this he found they aren't listed as an option for new sales, but a replacement part...in any event, I'm GETTING THEM!!!...this forum is GREAT!

Not sure why your dealer is telling you this. I bought my 4710 last year new with these telescoping links AND NOT as a replacement part. They were an option I paid extra for and they replaced the standard draft links.

Bob,
How much extra did they charge you for the draft links option.

my 3pt has the same size pin as the cat 1 pin on other end so what size or how are these setup?

Thanks Bob...I've found (this is my fourth CUT!) that through these forums I've given my dealer a real education!!!

The telescoping links cost me an extra $207 plus minor labor charge to install.

Stopped by my dealer about an hour ago do look at the 4310 one more time before making up my mind. When I asked him about telescoping links, he told me they were not even an option for the 4x10's. What's the deal? /forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif You would think the guy would want to sell a set if he could.

See attached pic of the telescoping draft links on my JD 4710. I'd suggest you find another dealer who could give you accurate information.

Actually, I don't think the dealer is entirely wrong. The links are available through the parts system, not actually as a new option. While a dealer who really knows the product, can handle this like its an option, some ay not realize that it is in the parts catalog.

The latest 4000TEN brochure that I have seen shows them in the back "Accessories" section.
