3pt lift arm adj

[ericbx1500]

I just installed my bb and have a question about the lift arm adjustment. The one arm has a large turnbuckle with a lock nut on top. Is the top adjustment fixed or am I able to loosen the nut and adjust it. I tried and can't even budge it so I took the arm off and adjusted the bottom. This doesen't seem right??

You should be able to loosen the nut and adjust the arm like the top link. Mine is so tight i couldn't budge it with a pipe wrench and cheater bar. I may take it to the dealer for warranty.

I sprayed some lube on it and I will let it sit over night and give it another shot sunday /forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif

I took the arm off AGAIN and put it in the vise and took a pipe wrench BAME broke loose finally!!! /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif /forums/images/graemlins/cool.gif /forums/images/graemlins/laugh.gif /forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif
