The hole closer to the end might not work, but it's pretty easy to switch and see if it lifts higher or interferes with the telescopic release so I'd try that first. Can you post a picture of the left side? Does the left side lift link have more than one hole? It's the same part as the silver one in your picture, but likely not threaded. Two other suggestions for solutions. One, drill new holes higher in the lift links as shown in red below. Second, buy a second threaded lift link like you have on the right side and put it on the left side. Then thread them as short as they will go.

Same configuration on left as the right. I'll check the interference issue first. Then, you've given me a couple of options as well and thanks. Before drilling I'll give the second adjusting link a try first

Adjusting those turn buckles on the lift arms is what I have been referring to all along. That will give you more lift height but it also takes away room on the lower side. I didn't realize you were a newbie. Sorry. I wouldn't move my turnbuckles to different holes. That affects your lifting capacity. Adjust the adjusters as I said.
So newbie your head would spin.... the last time I worked with a tractor it was a Farmall A about 50 year ago so
Things have changed....

Well get off of here and get out there on that tractor. That flail mower is a blast to run. I love operating mine.
I have already been out there running it. Yes I agree with you they are fun to run! Also the tractor has been a blast. Here where we live there isn't a flat piece of ground within a thousand miles (exaggeration) and the tractor hugs these hills like you would not believe.

Just the opposite here in the lowcountry of SC.
