Loader h165 FEL Question

[El Kabong]

Hello, just joined this forum and have a question. I have a 2014 John Deere 4105 I bought new. It has the H165 FEL. The problem I am having is, the part of the arms that the bucket hooks to are not even. This has just happened and I can't find anything bent, but, when I take just the bucket off, the arms are not aligned and they used to be. I can't find an adjustment for this. Any chance someone can help me with this, or point me in the right direction? Thanks

That's a good idea. I will pull the bucket tomorrow, that way my question will make sense. Thanks

My guess is the timing rod between the bucket mounts, high lighted in yellow, lost or sheared pin 17

Thanks for the diagram, it is part number 9 that is mis-aligned. I looked at the pins, ( 17 ) and they were still there, but, I didn't remove them. Thanks again for another thing to look for. I will check that and report back in case anyone else has this issue.

If a pin, 17 did not shear (one of them), the timing rod, 16 may have twisted. I guessing a pin sheared.

Agree with Zeb that #17 is sheared off.. happens and sometimes is hard to notice. I put the bolt back in from the bottom up, then it drops away when sheared and doesn't appear to "look" like it is ok. I use a lock nut on top and keep a supply of the shear bolts.

Thank you gentlemen, that was it, pin 17 was sheared, but, still in the rod. Thanks again for all the help
