What is "top & tilt"?

[Barneyhunts]

Thanks everyone! I appreciate the responses. I'm looking at a pamphlet on the Kubota L4400 and it lists the "top & tilt" as an option.

That is nice to hear. Let us know how much Kubota wants for them just so we know what factory top and tilts cost.

CCM has custom Top and tilt options available with double piloted check valves.

Thanks for the information everybody! I've added some of the sites to my "favorites" for future reference. I was at the local Kubota dealership yesterday and I asked about the price of the Top n Tilt as part of a price on a new L4400 HST. They're building a new showroom and I think it may be a while B4 I get the info as they don't expect the tractor on site until May.

Hydraulic adjustments for the 3 point hitch.
These should be a factory option in my opinion. Yet it is typically taken care of by the dealer or owner. Once you have them, you would never go back to manual adjustment.

Great lloking photo--what brand is yours? What size tractor is it on?
thanks...

My Kubota dealer wants $1,900 to add TNT to my L2800. Not sure what brand they use but it is not Kubota. I figure for about $1,000 including hoses I can do it my self using CCM cylinders and a joystick.

You're probably right. But 9 years ago my dealer told me it was a $1,400 option on the L models and they didn't even have anything or know about putting one on a B series, so I did my B2710 myself for a little over $800.

So now we have covered Top and Tilt how about controlling the width of the lower arms? Seems like every attachment I have is a different width. I do use the Pat's ECS stabilizer to setup the lower arms (marks on the bar) but I still have to loosen and tighten the turnbuckles. I wonder if a short stroke heavy duty hyd cylinder would do the job (actually 2 I guess)?
