Snap-Off. Roughly the GDP of a medium-sized African country. :LOL:

Not a hydraulics guy so you'll have to pardon my erroneous assumptions.

Oh. I'm not sure of the proper terminology, but banjo bolts that screwed into the 1/4 NTP on the cylinder with copper crush washers on both sides of the banjo.

The connections at the check valve block had 1/2 NPT to 1/4 JIC adapters screwed into them.

All I had to do was have one end of the hoses re-terminated with a JIC fitting. Pretty much everything else on the tractor is 1/4 pipe. Came with the red tape on the fittings that needed to be tightened on installation. Pretty fool-proof. Upper connection to the valve block is an adjustable...

It happens...occasionally...

Oops, missed that it was a single. Wondered why it was so cheap. The one from Summit seems reasonable. If FitRite can't help me, I'll likely go that way. Thanks!

Pursuant to this and RWS's cluster**** thread, is there any reason such a thing couldn't be mounted with hoses? Something like this, fer instance.

I have. Waiting for a reply.

I bought a tilt cylinder from FitRite and it's a work of art! However, in order to save a few bucks (a textbook example of false economy...) I ordered it without the check valve. I now regret that decision and would like to add the check valve assembly. Can a check valve assembly be ordered...

Ain't that the truth? Some days it hits me that I retired from the Navy 35 years ago this month, and retired completely 13 years ago. If I didn't know better, I'd swear I was getting old...

I realize your first choice is hydraulic, but a lot of folks have gone with linear actuators. Cheaper and simpler to install.
