Top/3rd link question

Will the third link from a 656 3pt hitch be the equal to the 3rd link for a 574 3pt hitch? When I bought my 574 it didn't have the original 3rd link/top link and I have found a 656 3rd link and was wondering if they are interchangeable without worry of performance or if they are a different length? I check the CASEIH Parts page but didn't get anything conclusive. Thank you in advance!
 
The length will be close,or the same. No worries there. The ends however are a different story.The 656 is a category 2. uses 1" pins.The 574 I don't know if it is cat 1(7/8 pin) or 2(1"pin). either will work. but a convereter bushing may be required.
 
My 574 uses an odd top link pin on the tractor end. The main part of the pin is 7/8, but it has a larger shoulder on the end. The hole on the tractor is larger on the right than the left. I hope that is not too confusing. The good is, those pins are available after market at a reasonable price. After I got my tractor, I now noticed that he hole configuration. I was at my local aftermarket parts place and saw a pin that looked like it might work. I asked the parts guy what that was and he said it is for an IH utility tractor such as a 574. I told him that was what I needed.
