Top N Tilt Cost

[Inspector507]

True.........if you already have two remotes and levers, then you only need the cylinders and hoses.

Hi Mad
I am in the process of adding the top n tilt to my B7500. I have the 2 remotes on the back and need to order the cylinders. But what sizes are required? And, I am just guessing here, but do I have to order a standard tilt rod from Kubota and cut the ends off and weld them to the new cylinder? Also I have read about flow restrictors and pilot relief valves. Are these needed or do they just make life a little easier?

Thanks
Al

Call Mark Carter at CCM (www.ccmachinery.com) and get one of his top links with the pilot operated check valves. Price will be $170 + shipping. He also sells hose kits but you can do better at www.hydraulichosefittings.com. I recommend 1/4 inch hoses.

The tilt link is another story. If you really want/need one then you have 2 options as I see it. Either get the TCC tilt link from Integration Engineering or make one yourself that will more approximate the geometry on your B7500.

There are several good recent posts on TNT. Here and Here .

I would get the top link first and then decide if you need the tilt.
