I Am trying to find a top link for my 411 Case and thanks to the information I recieved here I realize I need a top link with the off set to clear the hydraulic housing but it would seem to me that those ends might be available from an industrial supplier and you could utilize the readily available center section to duplicate the case top link by replacing the end assemblies with a set of off set ball socket things like on the original if I knew what those ends were called I'm sure I could find a supplier but Being senile I cant think of what they are??

I think I understand your problem, and I have bought TSC top links and have had to grind some off the end to keep it from binding, mike1111

We always called 'em "rod ends". I think that's what most suppliers call them too.
