B7800 3pt minimum height

kody632 · Jan 3, 2011

Wondering if there is a way to adjust the 3 pt arms so that they will go a little lower. seems when using the box blade it is just a little bit too high. I looked over it tonight but did not see any obvious adjustments?

The lowest the 3PT on my B7800 will go is 10 1/2" measuring from the floor to the center of the "eye" on the lower lift arms.

Something should be able to be adjusted to be able to loser them... have you asked your dealer about it?

Measured mine today, they are also 10.5"

Still haven't been able to figure out if I can get them to go lower... haven't asked the dealer yet either

Move upright rods into the front holes in the lower link arms..

I do not know that model but I think the arms are pulled up by the lift rods and they are splined on to the upper shafts. If you moved the arms 1 spline it would lower you arms, but I have never done it. Second idea If you made up a custom bracket where the lift arms connect on to the lower lift arms that would also lower the arms. I like my second idea best as it is the least intrusive.

Your lift links that connect to the lower arms have multiple holes and you can lower them that way!

THIS marks the lower lift links Art is talking about. You want them in hole #2 on both sides. That will lower the arms significantly.

Ditto. For those who wonder Kubota designed the front set of holes for maximum height/drop range, and the rear set for maximum lifting power. The bigger Kubotas have 3 sets of holes for this same purpose.
