Finally got a couple hydraulic kits installed. FitRite set me up for a hydraulic top link kit and a cylinder kit for my dump wagon which I plan to use with my winch. Thanks FitRite! The kits fit just right, and operate smoothly.

The install on the top link pretty was eventless. The cylinder for the wagon made me feel old…I needed an extra set of hands, but ended up enlisting the spousal unit…after the cylinder was dropped / smashed my knuckles for the second time, it was touch and go a couple times…no lawyers were involved and I believe I will have a warm meal this evening 😉

Take a look, here is the setup with the new top link, logging winch, and wagon.

Happy Memorial Day weekend!

Thanks….she’ll be a lot sweeter when I get a pto shaft on her. I believe when I picked up the winch they gave me the wrong shaft.
Wondered about that a little. Figured you ran out of time or patience before sizing the shaft. Kind of sucks you have to wait for a replacement after finally getting everything else together.

What’s the run down on your dump wagon? I don’t have near enough use for something like that to get one but still a bit jealous. 🙂
