Hydraulic Top Link Cat. 1-1 with Locking Block 20 7/8” - 31 7/8” with 2 x Hose

Tightened all of the fittings as tight as I could get them and they did not leak. Installed quickly and easy on my Bobcat CT5558. Works very smoothly in both directions with plenty of travel. Excellent addition to the tractor for the box blade and rotary cutter.

The media could not be loaded. Installed on TYM T394 with Pats quick connect without issue. I rotated the check valve not quite 90 degrees and routed hoses below the cylinder to ensure maximum lift height. For my OEM rear remotes, there was plenty of hose for the under cylinder hose routing. The TYM top link hanger was in the way, but easily adjusted. I was concerned with the Pat's quick connect that this one may not be long enough, but in reality, I think I could've gone with the next size down, as it tilts to the rear further than I've ever tilted manually. Forward tilt is probably sufficient. Again, doing it over, I would've went the next size shorter. There aren't instructions with it, but some basic know-how and YT should get you on your way. After a few cycles to fill the cylinder, it operates smooth. No cutting, no grinding necessary to attach. Glad I ordered this!

Quality and fit right

It would have been nice if the hoses were an inch longer

Installed on my TYM 494 worked perfectly and took less that 15 minutes to install.

This works on my LS MT235hE tractor with OEM rear remotes.Comes with hose's and fittings. I did have to chip some paint on the pin hole pivots so I could oil them up. Pretty thick paint so hope it lasts. It can be mounted in either direction so your hoses can reach or if you need the clearance.It's not for everybody but can be very useful.I use it for my box blade and finish mower or to rotate whatever I have for a counter balance at the time to give me a little bit more room when in the ditch's.Be aware, double check how much movement you need forward AND/OR backwards. You're only going to average around 3" of movement in either direction when it's centered due to the length of the cylinder. Check your implement to see which way you need to go. Do you need to rotate it backwards more or do you need it to rotate forward more.I ended up measuring wrong and it's basically only useful in one direction. One of these days will try to see if it will fit as a side link, if not then I'll just have to try again.

Mine shipped from the Netherlands to the US in 5 days! Installation was simple. Just got it and installed. I will update if anything negative shows up.

So far, this hydraulic top link has been better than I expected. It was easy to install, no leaks, and works smoothly. I expected the cylinder to bleed a little over time, but so far it’s been rock solid and the attachments stay at exactly the angle I set them to.
