: My 154 has had the top link bracket for the 3 point lift on the hydraulic lift welded. I bought a top
: link and it won't go far enough back into the bracket for me to put the pin in. The end of the top link
: hits the hydraulic lift housing before the holes in the housing and top link line up. I think there's
: probably too much weld there so I'm thinking of grinding it down, but I don't want to until I know
: what the measurement is for a stock unit so I don't grind through the housing and ruin the hydraulics.
: Trying to find parts is a difficult matter. Would you be able to measure how deep that space is on
: your 154? I need the distance from the backside of the hydraulic lift housing, BETWEEN the two
: brackets that stick out for the top link to hook on to, out or coming backwards to a point you'll need
: to specify, either the center of the pin holes, the furthest point the brackets stick out, the edge of the
: pin hole closest to the tractor or the edge of the pin hole furthest away from the tractor. If you're able
: to help me out, please try to be as exact as possible so I'll know how much I can grind. Just to make
: sure I'm on the right track, have you attached a top link to yours yet? By any chance is there some
: special removeable bracket that attaches to the housing which I'm missing? Any help you could offer
: would be GREATLY appreciated. Please email or call me. My number is 920-439-1672. Feel free to
: call if you'd like or leave your number or email and I'll call you.
: Tony I don't have a 154 but I do have a shop manual and that shows that there should be plenty of room for a top link end to fit.
There are no measurements but I don't think you should run into a problem if you are careful.
Best of luck John
