Levelling box for L1500DT

[Monte]

Hi

I'm fairly sure they are called a levelling box. Like this: http://www.bareco.com.au/files/hydraul2001/hy22a.htm but not hydraulic.

Anyway I need a new one because someone has welded mine fixed and I'm wondering if this is something I can buy generic off the shelf like a top bar or do I need the original part number?

Cheers

Monte

Hi there Monte,

If I'm understanding you correctly, what you have there is what we call a "top link" in the States, and it's a generic item, you can buy them at any tractor supply or good hardware store. You just need to know what Category (what size pins) your tractor takes (although you can shim them, too), and then the approximate length you need... they are almost all adjustable, within a certain range...

Thanks StorminN but I mean the adjustable bar on the right hand side that allows you to change the level on your implement. There seems to be a few different names for them. Here's a better link:

Looks like you can buy generic ones because I think this one would work. I just need to find an Aus supplier now.

PS does anyone know if there's any reason I can't get two of the things and be able to tilt twice as far?

Ah, that makes more sense... leveling bar...

I don't know the answer to the "can I use more than one" questions...

You should be able to use two and get more adjustment. I'd bet the tractor factories use only one to keep the costs down.

Great, I have hilly land and I'm hoping to rotary hoe to break everything up then grade on an angle to create terraces. So anyone know if I can get these things in Aus. It's not on the bareco website.
