Top and tilt L6060

[BigO 6060]

I appreciate the info I had recieved here in the past about the OEM top and tilt kits, kits provided from other companies, which parts are needed for DACVs, etc
Has anyone found a company you can ship or drop your cylinder to to have the DA check and flow reducer added to your cylinder. Trying my best to make use of my OEM top cylinder and not buy new ones. I know its possible. But unfortunately don’t have the time to do EVERYTHING I would like to or need to do. Not sure if I’m going to reinstall the tilt cylinder yet.

Contact FitRite Hydraulics. He may be able to add it for you.

Thanks, I did. While they can provide new kits they do not modify existing.

What exactly do you want done?

Add docv' s to my oem cylinders. Also add pressure reducers/ restrictors if necessary to smooth out operation ( read that somewhere). If I could by all the parts and pieces ready to install would prob do myself. my hands are full enough now that if anything other than install and go, I would prefer taking it and having it done.

Restrictors are cheap and trivial to install..

The DPOCV is more complicated. Do you know what type of ports are on the cylinders?

I think I have seen some kits that use banjo fittings and bolts at the cylinder and compression fittings at the DPOCV. Here is one example on Amazon

I recently went down the "what are the port sizes on your cylinder" rabbit hole when I upgraded the hoses on the top-n-tilt on the M6060. The cylinders are from GEARMORE and they use ORB -6 ports. Not sure if there's an accepted standard, but I doubt it given the industry.

I believe that he has the factory Kubota T&T set for his L6060.
Either way, I doubt that he is going to find any DPOCV kits for his cylinders.
