Top & Tilt Top Link Rubbing on Quick Hitch

[blb078]

Just took delivery of a L4060, I ordered the Kubota Top N Tilt kit and also bought a Land Pride QH16. When the 3 point is at the lowest position and the top link is all the way in the QH rubs against the hydraulic cylinder it's not much but it is enough to push some of the metal of the cylinder off. Does anyone know if this is an install issue or a design defect with the top cylinder being a smidge too long? Or I guess maybe the wrong length cylinder was ordered or sent or should I even worry about this??? Thanks

Once that CAT 1/2 ball fails, you can repair with a bit longer shank. Problem solved.

Keep an eye on that ball, they are known to oblong and rip out.

I think that I would grind off some of the QH metal so that there is clearance.

Or set the 3pt stop so that you can't have the hitch go that low.

One or the other. I would do the first option.
