Category 1 Hydraulic Top Link 18 1/8" - 26 3/8"

Fittings to adapt to 3/8" NPT are supplied with cylinder. It is a high quality looking part. The width of the pivot balls are 1-3/4" not 2" as in the description, with a 5/16" shoulder on each side that can be shortened to fit narrower applications. I also turned the valve block 90 degrees to make for better hose routing. It operates nice and smooth on my tractor. I'm very happy with the product and the price.

I'm embarrassed that I did not add this to my 1979 Allis Chalmers three point hitch years ago. The rear hydraulics were just sitting there and I didn't do anything with them. I cannot count the number of expletives and busted knuckles I have said and had putting on implements on my three point hitch. This makes life very easy. If you have rear hydraulics and a three-point hitch you have to do this.

Perfect Category 1 Fit and Well Made

The title calls this a category 1 top link, but it is cat 2. The difference is in the pin size. Cat 1 top links have 3/4" pins. This has 1" pins which is the cat 2 standard (for larger tractors). The product description makes no mention of the pin size other than calling it a category 1 top link. Rather than deal with returning it I spent an additional $10 on a couple cat 1 to cat 2 bushings, which needed to be cut short for clearance.Further, the product says it's "Agristore USA" brand. That company I believe sells an Italian made cylinder. This is Chinese and looks to be the same cylinder as the "Spare Parts Holland" branded Amazon link, the one with the hanging rod. This one doesn't have the rod but it does have the little tube welded to the cylinder, which might be handy to someone if they don't use a quick hitch and need to stow the cylinder when no rear attachment is mounted.All that aside I don't think It's a bad product. The paint was a little roughed up, weld spatter could have been cleaned up a little better, and the small plastic plugs in the hydraulic ports should have been a little wider to keep paint off the crush washer mounting surface. I cleaned that up rather than risk leaking. The additional $10 on bushings and the extra time in cutting/sanding the bushings to the right length was annoying, but not annoying enough to deal with a return.

Works as advertised but the BSP to NPT male adapters were missing

The media could not be loaded.  This thing has made my life so much easier. Before the bales would slide off the spike but now I can tilt them back and more easily move large round bales of hay without any problems.

Great product works well

this is single handedly the biggest waiste of money for my tractor. it does not operate like a top link. the company did attempt to send parts which wer still wrong. the overall function if and when you can get to to work is shotty at best. would not recommend this product unless you just wanted to throw money away and be pissed off

ottimo prodotto
