This is a nice hydraulic cylinder. Very solid and great built quality. Universal fit so easy to install with all included accessories. Saves a lot of money compared to OEM part so great deal as well. Hope this lasts as long or even longer, but so far so good.

If you've been to your (insert big name manufacturer's name here) tractor's website looking for replacement parts, you've likely seen the price of replacement top link hydraulic cylinders, and if so, you may still be recovering from the strain of your eyeballs almost popping out of your skull. It hurts. I know.The answer is, yes, these are a completely viable alternative. The cylinder and shaft are solid as a rock, the ends are nice and well-made and the balls operate smoothly. It comes with the check valve pre-installed, so there's no need to remove the assembly from your old top link, getting hydraulic fluid everywhere in the process. It also comes with a support rod pre-installed to keep your top link out of the way when you remove your accessory from the tractor. I'm pretty sure you can remove the support rod if you don't need or want it, but I left mine on, so I can't say for sure how hard that is.Overall, this is a fantastic deal on a well-made piece of equipment. Compared to the cost of the original parts, the value is absolutely huge. We'll see how they last, but I really have no complaints until it does, lol. 5 stars.

No matter how you look at it, the Kingway Hydraulic Top Link Cat. 1-1 with Locking Block is a lot of nice hardware for the money.If you're "on the fence" about transitioning from "OEM" or "Brand Name" to "Chinese-built" hydraulic cylinders, let me share my own experience. After using my old Ford tractor for years without problems, I bought a new tractor and within 6 months bent a couple of pistons on my front-end loader. OEM replacement cylinders were four times the price of "Chinese" cylinders available on Amazon. so I gave them a try. They've been operating flawlessly for over two years now, and I'm quite happy with them. In addition, they're actually heavier-built than my original equipment. Are they "as good", "better than", or "less than" my OEM cylinders? Only time will tell, but I've still got the roughly $1400 of savings in my pocket.This cylinder appears to have excellent build quality and the operation is flawless, with no leaks or other negative indicators. Weld and and overall manufacturing quality is excellent. The hydraulic lock/check valve assembly is a must for today's seal-free control valves if you want to keep your equipment settings in place.As an Amazon Vine reviewer I'm beginning to see that some (not all) Chinese manufacturers are producing top-quality, low-priced products in a serious effort to be competitive in the world market. This may be one of those products from what I can tell.
