Implement hook up problems..

It's possible lift arms don't spread as far apart. If stabalizer links can be temporarly disconnected that might alow flexability in arms.

I switched the lift arm pins on my implements from outies to innies years ago and haven't had any issues since.

JUST A LATE AFTERTHOUGHT AND ADVICE.. MEASURE ALL YOUR IMPLEMENTS FOR THE 27 & 1/8 OR WHATEVER BETWEEN LOWER PINS..I HAVE 6 IMPS AND ONLY ONE WOULD WORK WITH QUICK HITCH,,,SO PAT'S EASY IS THE RIGHT ONE,, THANKS TO ALL AGIN FOR REPLIES..

I have both Pats on mine and extendable link arms. It’s a breeze.

I AM 77 AND DON'T SEE ANY REASON TO-WRESTLE,PRY,PUSH,PULL,,TRY TO LIFT AND GENERAL TYPE FIGHT WITH AN IMPLEMENT IF THERE IS A BETTER/EASIER WAY.. MY OLD 48 8N HAS ADJUSTABLE BOTH LOWER ARMS AND IS WORN AND LOOSE,,BUT STILL HARD TO HOOK UP SOMETIMES..JUST ME,,YOUR WAYS MAY DIFFER.. HAVE A GOOD DAY ANYWAYS,,

Well they have quick release ends for the lift arms. Which are different lift arms you can get. John deere has some square tubing/ square inner sleeve type that work good. Also there is a quick hitch available.
